If the process stopped at Metaphase, the sister chromatids would not convene on the Metaphase Plate, the kintochore microtubules would have nothing to grap onto, and the sister chromatids would not be separated. Basically, you wouldn't have the means for the cell to divide.

What would happen if mitosis stopped working?
we;d die
How many cells do metaphase have?
Well, considering metaphase is a stage of cell mitosis (division), I would say metaphase has one cell. Telophase is the last stage of mitosis, in which the cell finally splits.
What are the phases of cell division in order?
Cell division includes mitosis, consisting of the prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. (Additional stages would be the preprophase and the prometaphase.) Mitosis is followed by cytokinesis. (see related question)
What would happen if the process of mitosis skipped telophase?
If Metaphase were skipped during the process of mitosis and Meiosis this would be very harmful for both stages because cell division would be hard to occur because Chromosomes are not lined up down the middle and the Spindle fibers can not prepare itself for cell division. In Meiosis this would be hard to create gametes because in metaphase one homologous chromosomes assort at random at the middle and this could not happen if there was no metaphase 1. It would be hard for diploid cells to then be reduced to 4 haploid cells. With out metaphase a non-disjunction could occur where Chromosomes do not separate properly and result in a Trisomy. Which could cause more diseases in our gene pool.
What is the different between prophase in mitosis and meiosis?
In metaphase I the tetrads are again arranged across the center by the movements of the kinetochores with the two centromeres opposite each other, but this time the sister chromatids will not be pulled apart as in mitosis.

What is a pattern of growth DNA duplication and division?
I asume you mean mitosis, not meiosis.it would be metaphase, prophase, and telophase.
What are the 4 steps of Mitosis and what is the end result of Mitosis?
The 4 steps are prophase,metaphase,anaphase, and telophase. The end result for mitosis is telophase, but if you are talking about the cell cycle it would be cytokinesis.

How many replicated chromosomes would be on the metaphase plane in a human cell undergoing mitosis?
There are a total of 46 replicated chromosomes (plus 46 original), since metaphase precedes the actual division in anaphase, and each daughter cell receives 46 chromosomes in mitosis.
A cell containing 92 chromatids at metaphase of mitosis would at its completion produce two nuclei each containing how many chromosomes?
46
What would happen if the chromosomes lined up in a random fashion during metaphase?
they do anyway
If a cell has 40 chromosomes how many centromeres would it have when it is in metaphase?
=after any cell does mitosis it's 2 daughter cells will have the same amount of chromosomes as the parent cell meiosis is different then mitosis=
What would happen if mitosis became uncontrolled?
Tumor grows
What would happen if cytokinesis occurred without mitosis?
the cell would not form
