mitosis is a part of the cell cycle in which replicated chromosomes are separated in to 2 new nuclei.
there are 6 stages of mitosis
1.- Interphase
Technically, the interphase is not a part of mitosis, however, it is still a crucial process as it leads up to the process of mitosis. Hence, the interphase refers to all the other stages of the cell cycle other than mitosis.
2.- Prophase
Prophase is technically the first stage of mitosis. It is also the longest phase of mitosis, where the chromatin condenses into chromosomes and the nuclear membrane breaks down (in prometaphase).
3.- Prometaphase
is the stage of eukaryotic cell division that falls between prophase and metaphase
phase
4.-Metaphase
In metaphase, the microtubules pull on the chromosomes with equal force, and the chromosome moves to the center of the cell.
5.- Anaphase
The anaphase is marked by the splitting of the sister chromatids. These sister chromatids then become the chromosomes of the daughter nuclei.
6.- Telophase
The telophase is the final phase of mitosis. It begins after the replicated, paired chromosomes are separated and pulled at the opposite ends of the pole.
