Histology - Mitosis (Whitefish Blastula)

Thank you for the great visualization and explanation. I also appreciated the root meanings of the various phases.

I was taught that "meta" means "middle". Here is a portion of an etymology of the root: The ancient Greek word meta (or perhaps originally meda) actually exists in English today. It can be seen in English mid, midst, middle, medium, mediate, medial, medieval, and Mediterranean. In all those words, meta (or its English equivalents medi, med, and mid) means "in the middle of", "central to", "between", "within" or "within the body of".

Thanks for your comment. If you google it the answer is "after" or "beyond". Here is an example of how it might be used in a word like metaphysics. "Actually, 'meta' in ancient Greek meant 'after'. The word 'metaphysics' was coined by an ancient editor of Aristotle's works, who simply used it for the books listed after those on physics. The physics books discussed things that change; the metaphysics books discussed things that don't change." The prefix "meso" is more often used to imply middle as in mesoderm or mesothelium.
