Detailed explanation-1: -Telophase of mitosis is essentially the reverse of prophase in terms of nuclear changes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Nucleoplasm surrounds the area of chromatin and the spindle is converted into a sol state and disappears, in this way two daughter nuclei are formed at the poles of the spindle. Hence Telophase is the reverse of prophase stage.

Detailed explanation-3: -So, the correct answer is ‘Telophase’.

Detailed explanation-4: -The reverse of prophase is the telophase. At the onset of this stage, the spindle disappears (absorbed in cytoplasm) and the chromosomes decondense and further loses their individuality after reaching their respective poles.

Detailed explanation-5: -get reversed during telophase as is evident due to the decondensation of chromosomes to chromatin and reappearance of the nuclear envelope and nucleolus. Thus, telophase is the reverse of prophase.
