Question

The process of mitosis is divided into 4 phases. Identify the correct order in which these phases appear in mitosis.

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

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Prophase $\to$ Metaphase $\to$ Anaphase $\to$ Telophase

Mitosis is the process in which the eukaryotic cell nucleus splits in two, followed by the division of the parent cell into two daughter cells. Mitosis is divided into four phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.

The correct order of the mitosis is - PMAT

Prophase $\to$ Metaphase $\to$ Anaphase $\to$ Telophase

Thus, the correct answer is (D).
