Metaphase
5-15 mins; chromosomes line up in center of spindle
Anaphase
2-10 mins; sister chromatids split, spindle shortens and chromatids pulled to opposite points of cell
Telophase
10-30 mins; opposite of prophase, spindles and asters disappear, nuclear membrane and nucleoli reappear, chromosomes unwind into chromatin, cleavage furrow can be seen
