Mitosis

Mitosis

• Definition The sequence of processes by which
  a cell divides to form two daughter cells
  which have a normal number of chromosomes.

2
Phases of Mitosis

• Interphase Duplication of chromosomes
• Prophase Condensation of chromosomes.
  Disappearance of nuclear membranes.
• Metaphase Chromosomes move to middle of cell.
  Spindle fibers form.
• Anaphase Spindle fibers divide chromosomes,
• Telophase New cells are formed.
