2.

Cytokinesis

Cell plate formed, mitochondria distributed between two daughter cells

3.

Telophase

Endoplasmic reticulum and nucleolus not reformed yet

4.

Telophase

Nuclear envelop reforms, Golgi complex reforms

Select the correct option with respect to mitosis.
 
1. Chromatids start moving towards opposite poles in telophase.
2. Golgi complex and endoplasmic reticulum are still visible at the end of prophase.
3. Chromosomes move to the spindle equator and get aligned along the equatorial plate in metaphase.
4. Chromatids separate but remain in the center of the cell in anaphase.
