Draw the phases of mitosis of a cell that contains four chromosomes as its diploid or 2n number

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.

Mitosis is a cell cycle division in which the parent cell divides into two daughter cells with alike chromosome numbers.

It consists of four steps namely prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.

According to the question, the diploid (2n) cell with four chromosomes will divide by the following stages. Find the attached image below for the diagram:

Prophase- four copied chromosomes will consolidate and pairing will happen.

Metaphase- the joined chromosomes will queue at the middle of the cell plate or equator.

Anaphase- the sister chromatids begins stretching apart by the spindle micro tubules near the edge of the poles.

Telophase: the chromosomes commence recoiling and other organelles start developing at the corresponding poles of the cell.

This was the process of karyokinesis and will be followed by cytokinesis that is the cytoplasm division.

Now the chromatids will become individual chromosomes and two diploids (2n) daughter cells will be formed.
