Explanation:
Mitosis is a type of cell division that forms two genetically identical cells. It involves four stages viz; prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
Considering a diploid (2n) cell with four (4) number of chromosomes.
Prophase- four duplicated chromosomes condense and pair up.
Metaphase- four chromosomes line up at the cell plate or equator in order to get separated.
Anaphase- the sister chromatids are pulled apart by the spindle microtubules
Telophase: the chromosomes recoil and organelles form at opposite poles of the cell.
At the end of cytokinesis, which is division of the cytoplasm, four chromatids are present in each daughter cell. The chromatids becomes individual chromosomes that retain the diploid (2n) chromosome number of four.
