MitosisType of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the
same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus

● Occurs only in "somatic" or body cells● Large cells have difficulty transporting enough nutrients
across their membrane● Cells are limited in size by their SURFACE AREA and
VOLUME ratio● Reproduce cells● Repair damaged cells● Growth ● Development ● Aging● Clotting
Purpose of Mitosis
![Page 3: Mitosis Explained](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071710/55a7762c1a28aba67d8b45bd/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
● Cell is in a resting phase
● Performing “normal”cell functions
● DNA replicates (copies)
● Organelles double in number: to prepare for division
1. Interphase

● Chromatids visible ● Centrioles migrate to
the poles● Nuclear membrane
and nucleolus disappears
● Spindle fibers form
2. Prophase

● Chromosomes line up along the equator
● Chromosome pairs attach to spindle fibers
3. Metaphase

● Chromatids separate and move to opposite poles (ends of cells)
● Sister chromatids split
4. Anaphase

● Chromosomes disappear (becoming chromatin) rods to threads
● Nuclear membrane reforms
● Nucleolus reappears● Spindle disappears● Centrioles duplicate● Mitosis ends
5. Telophase

● Division of the cytoplasm ● Form 2 new daughter cells● Organelles are divided● Daughter cells are genetically
identical● Cells return to interphase● Cytokinesis takes two forms,
depending on the cell…
6. Cytokinesis

Plants: ● New Cell Wall forms
between the two new cells
Animals: ● Cell pinches inward and
then splits into two

Vocabulary Cancer – cells lose the ability to control growth and continue to divide.G1 –phase of the cell cycle after cell division, growth and daily life S Phase –Replication or synthesis of DNA and associated proteins that happens before cells divide.G2 –Phase of the cell cycle when cells prepare for cell division by making more organelles and cytoplasm.Chromosome –Thread like structure within the nucleus containing genetic information. Made of DNA coiled around proteins.Chromatid –half of a duplicated chromosome. One of two “sister” parts, makes half of the “X”Centromere –area where sister chromatids of a chromosome attach.Centriole –tiny microtubule structure located in the cytoplasm that helps create the spindle fibers.Spindle –helps separate the chromosomes during mitosis. Fan shaped structure made of microtubules.
