The following stages of mitosis are represented by the image:
1. Metaphase: The chromosomes are arranged in the equitorial plate of the cell.
2. Prophase: Chromosomes condense, nuclear memebrane and nucleolus disappear.
3. Telophase: Nuclear memebrane and nucleolus start to reform.
4. Anaphase: Spindle fibres pull the chromosomes to the poles
The correct order of stages in mitosis is prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.
