1. Cell Cycle and Nuclear Divsion
Mitosis

2. Structures and Sequences
During Mitosis a number of changes take place
These changes follow a logical sequence of events that allow the division of DNA into two equal, genetically identical portions
There are a number of cell structures that bear watching

3. Important structural components
The DNA must replicate itself
The chromosomes must condense and re-extend
The nuclear envelope must disintegrate and reform
The centriole must divide and migrate (in animal cells, plants lack centrioles)
The spindle must form and disintegrate
The cytoplasm must divide

4. Chromosomes must: Replicate Condense Attach to the spindle
S phase of interphase
Condense
Prophase
Attach to the spindle
Prometaphase
Align in the middle of the spindle
Metaphase
Divide and migrate to opposite poles
Anaphase
Extend
