The cell cycle is controlled by three internal checkpoints that evaluate the cell to the next stage in the cycle can be halted until conditions are favorable.
DNA replication occurs during mitosis and meiosis. During this process, the DNA is lined up before being duplicated so that each cell that's created from the process has the DNA needed.
Near the end of interphase, the chromosomes double. Now the process of mitosis can begin. The phases, in order, that follow are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis. During cytokinesis, the cytoplasm divides and the resulting daughter cells each return to interphase where they spend most of their existence carrying out life processes. At some later point, the cell membrane is unable to handle the flow of materials into and out of the cell. The chromosomes double and mitosis occurs again.
A cell gets ready for mitosis through replication. Before mitosis can begin, the nucleus must make a copy of its chromatin. This ensures there is two complete sets of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA.) This step is known as replication. When this stage occours, chromatin cannot be seen with a light microscope. The replication chromatin coils up to form double stranded chromosome, which are joined in the middle by a centromere. After replication, two complete sets of DNA are bundled up together as double stranded chromosomes. The nucleus, or "brain", of the cell is finally ready for mitosis to begin.
The phase of mitosis in which chromosomes line up at the equator is called metaphase. This is when the chromosomes align in the center of the cell, ready to be separated into daughter cells during anaphase.
Interphase is the part of the cell cycle that occurs before mitosis can begin. Interphase is made up of the G1, S, and G2 phases. These phases of Interphase prepare the to-be-diving cell by increasing the cell size and synthesizing the DNA within that cell.

Cytokinesis comes after Mitosis.
During interphase, the cell undergoes growth, DNA replication, and preparation for cell division. It consists of three stages: G1 (cell growth), S (DNA synthesis), and G2 (further growth and preparation for division). Overall, interphase is a critical period for the cell to ensure it is ready for mitosis or meiosis.
During early mitosis, chromatid pairs are held together by protein complexes called cohesins. Cohesins play a crucial role in chromosome segregation by keeping sister chromatids attached until they are ready to be separated during the later stages of mitosis.
Complete sets of chromosomes are aligned at the metaphase stage of mitosis. At this stage, the chromosomes are lined up along the metaphase plate in the center of the cell, ready to be separated into two daughter cells during anaphase.

During interphase, the cell is actively growing, carrying out its normal functions, and preparing for cell division. DNA replication occurs, resulting in each chromosome being duplicated. Additionally, organelles are also replicated during this phase.
