Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The fact that the middle of the cell is pinched inward suggests that the cell is undergoing cytokinesis, the final stage of mitosis. The presence of two nuclei indicates that the cell has completed mitosis and is now in the process of dividing into two identical daughter cells, which occurs during telophase.
