Metaphase is the stage of mitosis where chromosomes line up at the equator of the cell and are properly sorted before being pulled to opposite poles during anaphase. If a cell bypasses metaphase and goes directly to anaphase, it could result in chromosomes being improperly separated, leading to the daughter cells having different numbers of chromosomes. This could lead to genetic abnormalities or cell death.
