The phase of the shortest duration is

The correct option is C Anaphase Anaphase is the shortest phase of mitosis. In anaphase, the sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite ends of the cell. In metaphase, chromosomes line up along the metaphase plate. Telophase is the next to the shortest phase of mitosis after anaphase.

The correct option is C
Anaphase

Anaphase is the shortest phase of mitosis. In anaphase, the sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite ends of the cell. In metaphase, chromosomes line up along the metaphase plate. Telophase is the next to the shortest phase of mitosis after anaphase.
