State
Prophase is mitosis's first stage: the nuclear envelope begins breaking down, chromosomes condense into visible structures, and spindle microtubules extend from the separating centrosomes.

Watch for
Condensation in prophase is physical coiling for safe movement, not the DNA replication that already happened, in S phase.
