But these two processes are actually interconnected as we'll see in just a moment. So mitosis, although it is one continuous process we usually divide mitosis into four individual phases. We have ProPhase, metaphase, anaphase and telephase. And then we have cytokinesis. But actually cytokinesis, as we'll see in just a moment begins in the process of telephase in the phase of mitosis, known as telephase. So let's go through each one of these individual phases of mitosis and let's describe what takes place in each one of these phases beginning with ProPhase.
