Mitosis in brief.

Cell cycles are divided into five portions or phases. The nondividing cell is in interphase. The division process is then divided into prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Lets look at these steps individually.
Interphase,

During interphase, the cell is involved in all the normal ...
