early prophase the cell starts to break down some structures and build others up, setting the stage for division of the chromosomes, the mitotic spindle begins to form, The nucleolus, a part of the nucleus where ribosomes are made, disappears
late prophase (prometaphase) mitotic spindle begins to capture and organize the chromosomes, chromosomes finish condensing, nuclear envelope breaks down, releasing the chromosomes.
metaphase the spindle has captured all the chromosomes and lined them up at the middle of the cell, ready to divide.
anaphase sister chromatids separate from each other and are pulled towards opposite ends of the cell. Microtubules not attached to chromosomes elongate and push apart, separating the poles and making the cell longer.
