4. MITOSIS

5. Mitosis
The process of cell division which results in the production of two daughter cells from a single parent cell.
The daughter cells are identical to one another and to the original parent cell.

6. Mitosis can be divided into stages
Interphase
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase & Cytokinesis

7. Interphase The cell prepares for division
Animal Cell
DNA replicated
Organelles replicated
Cell increases in size
Plant Cell
DNA replicated
Organelles replicated
Cell increases in size

9. Prophase The cell prepares for nuclear division
Animal Cell
Packages DNA into chromosomes
Plant cell
Packages DNA into chromosomes

10. Prophase Plant Cell Animal Cell
Photographs from:

11. Metaphase The cell prepares chromosomes for division
Animal Cell
Chromosomes line up at the center of the cell
Spindle fibers attach from daughter cells to chromosomes at the centromere
Plant Cell
Chromosomes line up at the center of the cell
Spindle fibers attach from daughter cells to chromosomes at the centromere

12. Metaphase Plant Cell Animal Cell
Photographs from:

13. Anaphase The chromosomes divide
Animal Cell
Spindle fibers pull chromosomes apart
½ of each chromosome (called chromotid) moves to each daughter cell
Plant Cell
Spindle fibers pull chromosomes apart
½ of each chromosome (called chromotid) moves to each daughter cell

14. Anaphase Plant Cell Animal Cell
Photographs from:

15. Telophase The cytoplasm divides
Plant Cell
DNA spreads out
2 nuclei form
New cell wall forms between to nuclei to form the 2 new daughter cells
Animal Cell
DNA spreads out
2 nuclei form
Cell wall pinches in to form the 2 new daughter cells
