What is a period of nuclear division in a cell called?
The division of nucleus and its parts during cell division is called Cytokinesis.Firstly, during Prophase the nucleus membrane starts disappearing and then after(Metaphase,Anaphase)it, in Telophase it again appears when the daughter cells are almost forming. Here the division of nucleus ends an then the division of cytoplasm takes place which is called Karyokinesis.
Explain why the terms cell division and mitosis should not be used interchangeably?
Cell division is a broader term that encompasses both mitosis (nuclear division) and cytokinesis (division of the cytoplasm). Mitosis specifically refers to the process of nuclear division where a cell's replicated chromosomes are evenly distributed into two daughter nuclei. Using them interchangeably can lead to confusion and misunderstanding of these specific processes in cell biology.
During which stage of mitosis does the nucleus break down?
The breakdown of the nucleus occurs in the prophase stage of mitosis. This is when the nuclear envelope disintegrates, allowing the chromosomes to be released into the cytoplasm for subsequent division.
The actual process of cell division in eukaryotic cells is called?
Nuclear division in eukaryotic cells is called mitosis.
What mitosis is defined as division of what?
Mitosis is division of cells
In Mitosis What organelle does the division of the nucleus?
In mitosis, the division of the nucleus is carried out by the spindle fibers. These fibers are formed by the microtubules and are responsible for separating the duplicated chromosomes into two sets in the process called cytokinesis.

Why is it better to call mitosis nuclear division rather then cell division?
It is more accurate to refer to mitosis as nuclear division because it specifically involves the division of the cell's nucleus, resulting in two daughter nuclei with the same genetic material. Cell division, on the other hand, includes both nuclear division (mitosis) and cytokinesis, the division of the cell's cytoplasm. Naming it nuclear division helps emphasize the specific process occurring at the nucleus level.
What is the division of the nucleus and it's contents?
Mitosis is the division of the nucleus.
Division of the nucleus?
Mitosis.

Division of cell nucleus?
mitosis
What is mitosis and meiosis a division of?
The nucleus.
Does mitosis refer to nuclear division and NOT cytoplasmic division?
Mitosis specifically refers to nuclear division, where the chromosomes are separated into two identical sets in the nucleus. Cytoplasmic division, known as cytokinesis, occurs after mitosis and involves the division of the cytoplasm to create two separate daughter cells.
Is mitosis same as karyokinesis?
No, mitosis refers to the division of the cell's nucleus, while karyokinesis specifically refers to the division of the nucleus during cell division. Karyokinesis is a part of mitosis, along with cytokinesis which involves the division of the cytoplasm.
What is the name of the X shaped figure inside the nucleus?
Chromosome. The chromosomes are only X shaped during the early prophase stage in mitosis (nuclear division). Otherwise, the chromosomes are in their chromatin form in which they are unwound and seem like a bunch of tangled thread.
What is nuclear division?
Nuclear division is the process by which a cell's nucleus divides into two daughter nuclei. This process occurs during cell division to ensure that each new cell receives a complete set of genetic information. There are two types of nuclear division: mitosis, which produces two identical daughter cells, and meiosis, which produces four genetically unique daughter cells.
