Cell Division Lesson

the final stage of the cell cycle during which the cell's cytoplasm divides, distributing the organelles into each of the two new daughter cells

• chromosome

• cytokinesis

• cell cycle

• binary fission

the second stage of the cell cycle during which the cell nucleus divides into two new nuclei and one set of DNA is distributed into each daughter cell

• cell cycle

• interphase

• cytokinesis

• mitosis

the simple cell division in which one cell splits into two; used by bacteria

• cell cycle

• mitosis

• cytokinesis

• binary fission
