Which lists the steps of mitosis in the correct order?

Mitosis proceeds through prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase, in that order. In prophase, chromosomes condense; in metaphase, they line up in the middle of the cell; in anaphase, they separate; and in telophase, new nuclei form. Therefore, “prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase” is the correct sequence.
