Understand the cell cycle phases: Interphase is the phase where the cell prepares for division, and mitosis is the process of cell division itself, consisting of several stages.
Recognize that chromatin condensation is a key event in the early stages of mitosis, allowing chromosomes to become visible under a microscope.
Identify the stages of mitosis: Prophase, Prometaphase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, and Cytokinesis, each with distinct characteristics.
Focus on Prophase: This is the stage where chromatin begins to condense into visible chromosomes, marking the start of mitosis.
Note that chromatin condensation is crucial for the proper segregation of chromosomes during cell division, ensuring genetic material is accurately distributed to daughter cells.
