Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What are the two main stages of cell division?
A
interphase and mitosis
B
cytokinesis and mitosis
C
cytokinesis and synthesis
D
the M phase and the S phase
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Mitosis ends with telophase, or the stage at which the chromosomes reach the poles. The nuclear membrane then reforms, and the chromosomes begin to decondense into their interphase conformations. Telophase is followed by cytokinesis, or the division of the cytoplasm into two daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -As viewed in the microscope, the cell cycle is divided into two basic parts: mitosis and interphase. Mitosis (nuclear division) is the most dramatic stage of the cell cycle, corresponding to the separation of daughter chromosomes and usually ending with cell division (cytokinesis).

Detailed explanation-3: -The stages of mitosis are: prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.
