Question

Identify the correct sequence for the stages in mitosis.

• A. Interphase $\to$ Prophase $\to$ Metaphase $\to$ Anaphase $\to$ Telophase
• B. Metaphase $\to$ Anaphase $\to$ Telophase $\to$ Interphase $\to$ Prophase
• C. Anaphase $\to$ Telophase $\to$ Interphase $\to$ Prophase $\to$ Metaphase
• D. Prophase $\to$ Metaphase $\to$ Anaphase $\to$ Telophase $\to$ Interphase

Answer 1

The correct option is A Interphase $\to$ Prophase $\to$ Metaphase $\to$ Anaphase $\to$ Telophase

Mitosis is the kind of cell division seen in eukaryotes. In this process, a parent cell divides to form two daughter cells. The correct flow or sequence of stages in mitosis are given below.

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

After telophase and cytokinesis, each daughter cell re-enters interphase to begin preparing for the next round of cell division.
