Stages of mitosis explained
by Wendy R.
Mitosis, the process where cell division takes place is a very complicated and important process. Mitosis, which takes place in the cell nucleus, consists of many steps; these steps in turn, have several parts to them. The main steps in mitosis are: interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase and cytokinesis. Cytokinesis, while not an official phase of mitosis, is the division of the cell
