▼

1. The image depicts the stages of mitosis in an animal cell.
2. Starting from the top left, the cell is in interphase, with chromatin loosely packed and the nuclear envelope intact.
3. Moving to the top right, the cell enters prophase: chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes, the nuclear envelope breaks down, and the mitotic spindle begins to form.
4. In the middle right panel, the cell is in metaphase: chromosomes align at the equatorial plane (metaphase plate), attached to spindle fibers from opposite poles.
5. The bottom right panel shows anaphase: sister chromatids separate and are pulled toward opposite poles by the shortening spindle fibers.
6. The bottom left panel illustrates telophase: chromosomes reach the poles, decondense back into chromatin, and new nuclear envelopes form around each set.
7. Finally, cytokinesis occurs (not fully shown but implied), dividing the cytoplasm and resulting in two genetically identical daughter cells.
