Mitosis

What is Mitosis?

• the process of the genome’s DNA being copied in cells

• the process by which a single parent cell divides to make two new daughter cells

• three major steps: first the opening of the double helix and separation of the DNA strands, the priming of the template strand, and the assembly of the new DNA segment

• Chromosomes arrive at opposite poles and begin to decondense

What is the first step in Mitosis?

• M= Metaphase

• T= Telophase

• A= Anaphase

• P= Prophase

What is the second step in Mitosis?

• M= Metaphase

• A= Anaphase

• P= Prophase

• T= Telophase

What is the third step for mitosis?

• T= Telophase

• P= Prophase

• A= Anaphase

• M= Metaphase

What is the final step of mitosis?

• P= Prophase

• T= Telophase

• A= Anaphase

• M= Metaphase
