Answer

The four phases of mitosis are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. During prophase, the chromosomes attach to the spindle. During metaphase, the chromosomes align themselves at the equator. During anaphase, chromatids separate, and the chromosomes move to the poles. During telophase, nuclear envelopes wrap themselves around the chromosomes.
