mitosis
division of the nucleus in somatic (non-sex) cells
cytokinesis
division of the cytoplasm and occurs during the final stage of mitosis
the cell splits into two identical daughter cells
interphase
continues routine metabolic functions and growth
duplicates DNA and organelles
(chromosomes not visible yet under microscope)
prophase
chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes
spindle fibers formation; centromeres are also duplicated and then start moving towards opposite ends
nuclear envelope and nucleolus disappear
metaphase
star-shaped arrangement of microtubular rays (an aster *) surrounding each centriole
chromosomes settle in the middle of the cell
anaphase
separation of chromatids, with each (now chromosomes) moving to opposite poles
telophase
chromosomes de-condense at each end
nuclear envelope begins to form near the two ends
spindle fiber disappears
two nuclei is present
