The answer is the first one: telophase.

Explanation for each option:

  • Telophase: This is the correct answer. During telophase, the nuclear envelope reforms around the separated sets of chromosomes at each pole of the cell, marking the near end of mitosis.

  • Anaphase: This is incorrect. Anaphase is the phase where the sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles of the cell.

  • Metaphase: This is incorrect. During metaphase, the chromosomes line up at the metaphase plate, but the nuclear envelope is already disintegrated by this point.

  • Prophase: This is incorrect. In prophase, the nuclear envelope breaks down to allow the chromosomes to condense and become visible.

In summary, the nuclear envelope reforms during telophase.
