Mitosis is the process by which a cell duplicates the chromosomes in its cell nucleus, in order to generate two, identical, daughter nuclei.
Mitosis
Most of the cells in your body are not dividing and are said to be in interphase. In fact, some of your cells, such as your neurons, are permanently in interphase and will never divide.

Animal Cell Mitosis
This animation demonstrates the stages of mitosis in an animal cell. Use the control buttons in the upper left to run the complete animation.
Originally, the term mitosis refers only to nuclear division unaccompanied by cytokinesis (which is the division of the cytoplasm), as in the case of some cells like certain fungi and in fertilized egg of many insects.
The nuclear division producing two daughter nuclei identical to the original nucleus. A type of nuclear division that produces two daughter nuclei identical to the parent nucleus normally just prior to cell division. See endomitosis, cytokinesis.
MITOSIS - WHEN CELLS SPLIT APART
Eventually cells need to duplicate. There are two main methods of replication, mitosis and meiosis. This tutorial will talk about mitosis.
Mitosis: Interactive Java Tutorial
Mitosis is the mechanism that allows the nuclei of cells to split and provide each daughter cell with a complete set of chromosomes during cellular division.
Mitosis
Mitosis is a cellular process that replicates chromosomes and produces two identical nuclei in preparation for cell division.
Mitosis
What is (and is not) mitosis?
Mitosis is nuclear division plus cytokinesis, and produces two identical daughter cells during prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
Mitosis is the process of forming (generally) identical daughter cells by replicating and dividing the original chromosomes, in effect making a cellular xerox. Commonly the two processes of cell division are confused.

allele - one variant of a particular gene; for example, there are blue and brown alleles of the eye-color gene.
Mitosis: the process of cell division in which a single cell produces two daughter cells which are identical to on another, and to the original parent cell.
Mitosis
The normal process of nuclear division in a eukaryote, whereby nuclear division occurs on a spindle structure without reduction in the chromosome number in the daughter nuclei.
Mitosis: The production of c ells that are genetically identical to the original cell. Compare to meiosis.

Mutation: A spontaneous or induced change in the DNA of a cell.
mitosis -- The process of nuclear division in eukaryotes. It is one step in cytokinesis, or cellular division. MORE ?.
mitosis
(my-toh-sis) [Gk. mitos, thread]
A process of nuclear division in eukaryotic cells conventionally divided into five stages: prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
mitosis The division of the cell's nucleus and nuclear material of a cell; consists of four stages: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Cell xeroxing. Mitosis occurs only in eukaryotes.
Mitosis (my-TOE-sis) The type of cell division that eukaryotic cells use to make new body cells. Mitosis results in two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell.
Mitosis: The process of nuclear division in cells that produces daughter cells that are genetically identical to each other and to the parent cell.

Each of the two daughter strands of a duplicated chromosome joined at the centromere during mitosis and meiosis. Chromosome.
Centromere -- a region of a chromosome to which spindle traction fibers attach during mitosis and meiosis; the position of the centromere determines whether the chromosome is considered an acrocentric, metacentric or telomeric chromosome.

eukaryotic - cell has nucleus; divides through mitosis
The cytoplasmic membrane of prokaryotes is fundamentally similar to that of a eukaryotic cell.
A class of drugs called spindle inhibitors stops cell replication early in mitosis. During mitosis, chromosome separation requires spindle fibers made of microtubules; spindle inhibitors stop the synthesis of microtubules.
Chromatid: One of two copies of a replicated chromosome during mitosis. Together they are called sister chromatids. Each one becomes a daughter chromosome at anaphase of mitosis and at the second meiotic division.
The point where the two identical chromatids are connected during mitosis/meiosis.
