Mitosis

Mitosis passes through several stages before it splits the cells into similar cells. However, these cells then have to grow into distinguishing organs. This is possible through a process called differentiation. The differentiation process is just a set of operations where a few of the genetic data are turned on and the other few are turned off. This leads to several possibilities of functions. For example if we have six properties in a gene then we have 6x6, 36 possibilities to turn certain genes on and off. Therefore, these myriad of possibilities gives the differentiation process an option to utilize. Therefore, it is clear that the stages of mitosis are very important for the entire growth of our body. Here are the stages, in which the process of mitosis happens,

1. Interphase: The DNA will have chromatins in large number and they will loosely connected mass in the cell. This loosely connected mass would tight pack itself during the process of nucleus division. In the Interphase stage, this chromatin remains as is without any transformation. DNA undergoes mutation continuously during the entire stage. The nucleus membrane stays in place protecting the DNA
2. Prophase: At this stage, the DNA molecules tend to condense. As a result, the loosely hanging chromatin starts to condense into chromosomes. This condensation takes place when the chromatins make themselves into stronger shorter chromosomes by coiling. By nature, coiling could allow condensation faster and stronger. Now the nuclear membrane is disintegrated and it is no longer available. The spindle fibers inside the nucleus now are at opposite poles.
3. Metaphase: Since the spindle fibers are the opposite ends, they can now attach to the centromere and make them come to the center. Therefore, the chromosomes are now aligned at the equatorial plate. Spindle fibers have the main functionality to bring the chromosome to the center and then split them.

4. Anaphase: Now the chromosome, which is brought to the center, has to be split. This is possible when stress and tension is applied to it. This is applied when the spindle fibers are shortened and they are stressed. Now the centromere splits open to release chromatins. These chromatins are identical structures.

5. Telophase: now the chromosomes, which are split by the spindles, are with the respective poles. Now the nuclear cover which had previously disintegrated will start to form leving the chromosome go into shape. Now the chromosome would take its full shape and coil itself. The spindle fiber having finished its functionality will disintegrate into abyss.
