  1. Mitosis Cell Division

  2. Mitosis • Mitosis is the process of cell division producing identical daughter cells from the parent cell. • Used by single cell organisms to reproduce. • Asexual reproduction in organisms that “clone” to reproduce.

  3. Multicellular organisms use mitosis to: • Grow, repair and replace worn-out or damaged cells. • Mitosis has 4 distinct phases; • Prophase • Metaphase • Anaphase • Telophase

  4. Interphase • The normal life cycle of the cell. • The Chromatin is duplicated. • Makes new organelles • Chromosomes are not visible yet.

  5. Prophase- The starting of Mitosis • First stage of Mitosis. • Sister chromatids become visible. • Centriloes move to poles of cell. • By end the end the nucleolus disappears. • Sister chromatid attach to spindle fibres.

  6. Metaphase- Second Stage • Sister chromatids attach completely attach to fibres. • Chromatids line up in the center.

  7. Anaphase- Third stage • Sister chromatids separate to become individual chromosomes. • Once chromosomes are at opposite ends of the cell Anaphase is over.

  8. Telophase- Final Stage • Chromosomes uncoil and become chromatin again. • Spindle fibres disappear. • Nuclear envelopes develop.

  9. Cytokinesis- two new cells • Cytokinesis is the formal splitting of cells. • Cell membrane pinches in to form 2 cells. • Usually happens the same time as telophase.
