Mitosis - A stage of the cell cycle where cell division results in two daughter cells each
having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus, typical of ordinary
tissue growth.
Somatic Cells - Any cells in the body other than reproductive cells
Interphase - Stage of the cell cycle when a cell grows, replicates DNA, and prepares to go
through cell division (Mitosis).
Cell Cycle - An ordered sequence of events in the life of a cell
Prophase - The first phase of mitosis in which duplicated chromosomes condense and
spindle fibers begin to form.
Metaphase - The second phase of mitosis in which the chromosomes line up across the
center of the cell.
Anaphase - Third phase of mitosis in which the chromosomes separate and move to
opposite ends of the cell.
Telophase - The fourth phase of mitosis in which the chromosomes begin to stretch out
and lose their rod-like appearance and a new nuclear membrane forms. The two new cells begin
to seal off.
Cytokinesis - The final stage of the cell cycle: the division of the cytoplasm to form two
separate daughter cells immediately after mitosis.
Chromatin - Clusters of DNA, RNA, and proteins in the nucleus of a cell
Chromatid - one of two identical "sister" parts of a duplicated chromosome
