The document summarizes the stages of mitosis, including interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis. During interphase, the cell grows and duplicates its DNA in preparation for division. In prophase, the chromosomes condense and the nuclear envelope disappears. In metaphase, the chromosomes align in the center of the cell. In anaphase, the sister chromatids are separated and pulled toward opposite ends. In telophase, the nuclear envelope reforms and chromosomes decompress. Finally, in cytokinesis, the cell physically divides into two daughter cells.
