CELL DIVISION is the process by which a single parent cell splits to form new cells, known 3. ___________________
as daughter cells. There are two types of cell division: mitosis and meiosis. o The spindle fibers pull the _______________ apart.
o This separates each one from its duplicate.
MITOSIS → division of ________________ in eukaryotic organisms.
These move to ______________ of the cell.
→ a single cell divides into _____________________.
o Now there are two_____________________________.
Why do cells need to divide or why do mitosis need to happen?
1. ______________- Living things grow by producing more cells, NOT because each cell 4. _____________________
increases in size o ________________ disappear
2. ______________- repairing of damaged tissue such as wounds. o _________________are formed
3. ______________- reproduction of cell and nutrients. If cell gets too big, it cannot get o Chromosomes __________.
enough nutrients into the cell and wastes out of the cell.
After the preparatory phase or interphase, the cell will divide or undergo the ____________:
Mitotic phase or mitosis. And mitosis has four subphases; _____________,_____________, Cytokinesis
______________,_________________ and followed by __________________. ❖ The ________________________ divides,
