Mitosis prophase involves chromatin supercoiling and condensing, centrosome polarization and spindle fiber formation, and the dissolution of the nuclear membrane and nucleus.
During prophase of mitosis, chromatin supercoils and condenses, centrosomes move to opposite poles and form spindle fibers, and the nuclear membrane and nucleus dissolve.
