Understand that mitosis is the process of cell division that results in two genetically identical daughter cells from a single parent cell.
Recognize that mitosis consists of several phases, each with specific events that prepare the cell for division.
Identify the phases of mitosis in their correct order: Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase.
Prophase is the first phase where the chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes, and the mitotic spindle begins to form.
Metaphase follows, where chromosomes align at the cell's equatorial plane, Anaphase is next, where sister chromatids separate, and Telophase is the final phase where the cell prepares to divide into two.
