Mitosis Phases Order Explained

To arrange the phases of mitosis correctly, we need to understand the sequence of events during cell division.

Understanding Cell Division Phases

The stages of mitosis occur in a specific order:

  • Interphase (A): The preparatory phase where the cell grows and duplicates its DNA.
  • Prophase (E): Chromosomes condense and become visible; the nuclear envelope starts to break down.
  • Metaphase (D): Condensed chromosomes align along the cell's equator (metaphase plate).
  • Anaphase (C): Sister chromatids separate and move towards opposite poles of the cell.
  • Telophase (B): Chromosomes arrive at the poles, decondense, and new nuclear envelopes form around them.

Correct Sequence of Mitosis

Based on the order of events, the correct sequence of the given phases is:

  1. Interphase (A)
  2. Prophase (E)
  3. Metaphase (D)
  4. Anaphase (C)
  5. Telophase (B)

Therefore, the correct order is A, E, D, C, B.
