Put the phases of mitosis in the correct sequence. (The top is the beginning and the bottom is the end.)

  1. Metaphase
  2. Anaphase
  3. Prophase
  4. Telophase

Telophase
arrow_right_alt
The nucleus condenses; the chromosomes become visible; the spindle forms, and the nuclear envelope breaks down.
Prophase

5 (I can explain this to another person.)
The spindle pulls the sister chromatids apart into individual chromosomes and pull them to opposite poles of the cell.
Metaphase
The nuclear envelope reforms around the chromosomes; the spindle breaks apart and the cell membrane begins to pinch the cell in two.
