Spindle Equator

The imaginary plane located at the midpoint between the poles of a cell during mitosis or meiosis where chromosomes line up during metaphase.

Metaphase

A phase of cell division where chromosomes align in the middle of the cell before being separated into each of the two daughter cells.

Prophase

The first stage of cell division, where chromosomes become visible and the nuclear envelope dissolves.
