Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is the correct order of the stages of mitosis?
A
Metaphase, prophase, telophase, anaphase
B
Telophase, prophase, anaphase metaphase,
C
Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
D
Anaphase, telophase, metaphase, prophase
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Stages of mitosis: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase. Cytokinesis typically overlaps with anaphase and/or telophase. You can remember the order of the phases with the famous mnemonic: [Please] Pee on the MAT.

Detailed explanation-2: -These phases are prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Cytokinesis is the final physical cell division that follows telophase, and is therefore sometimes considered a sixth phase of mitosis.

Detailed explanation-3: -The correct option is D Prophase-Metaphase-Anaphase-Telophase. Mitotic phase or M phase is divided into four stages. They are: Prophase-The first stage which is marked by the initiation of condensation of chromosomal material.
