Term
Definition
Mitosis   A stage of the cell cycle where a cell divides and splits into two identical daughter cells.  
🗑
Stages of Mitosis   Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, and Cytokinesis  
🗑
Prophase   The nucleus breaks apart and is no longer visible. Chromatin has condensed and organized itself into chromosomes. Centrosomes begin to move part and spindle formation begins.  
🗑
Metaphase   The chromosomes become attached to a spindle fiber. Chromosomes line up at the middle of the cell.  
🗑
Anaphase   Chromosomes are pulled apart and moved towards the centromeres. When chromosomes are pulled apart they are referred to as sister chromatids.  
🗑
Telophase   The cell begins to form into two different cells. The nucleus begins to reform and the chromosomes will relax and unwind to form chromatin.  
🗑
Cytokinesis   Cytokinesis is not "true" stage of mitosis. Cytokinesis refers to the splitting of the cytoplasm and organelles between the two new cells.  
🗑
Importance of Mitosis   Mitosis allows our bodies to repair damaged tissues due to an injury and is why we grow during childhood.
