It is not. Mitosis is the splitting of a single cell. It is only a portion of the cell's life only acounting for not even 20% of it. It consists of five phases: Protophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, and Cytokinesis. Protophase is the process of duplicating a cell's DNA and other organelles in preparation of a split. The Nucleus begins to fade. In Metaphase, the DNA lines up along the centre of the cell as centrioles side on either end of the cell. In Anaphase, the centrioles grab hold of the DNA and split it apart and pull them close. In Telophase and Cytokinesis, the cells begin to become more independant and split their cytoplasm. The membrane forms between them and they become two different cells.

Does mitosis allow genes to move from one chromosome to another?

No, mitosis does not allow genes to move from one chromosome to another. Mitosis is a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and type of chromosomes as the parent cell. Genes are not moved between chromosomes during this process.


What is it called between one mitosis and another mitosis?

The period between two mitotic phases in a cell is known as interphase. During interphase, a cell carries out its metabolic processes and prepares to divide.


What is the process that make cells work?

One cell divides into two in a process called mitosis. Mitosis produces two genetically identical “daughter” cells from a single parent cell. Another type of cell division, meiosis, creates four daughter cells that are genetically distinct from one another and from the original parent cell.


What important thing happens during mitosis?

Another Cell forms that is exactly the same as the previous one.


What type of process is when one cell divides into two cells?

Mitosis is when one cell divides into two.


F you start with 5 cells how many cells will there be after two cell cycles of mitosis?

After one cell cycle of mitosis, the number of cells doubles to 10. After a second cell cycle, each of the 10 cells will divide again, resulting in a total of 20 cells. This is because mitosis involves one round of cell division followed by another round of cell division, leading to exponential growth.


What is it called when one cell turns into two cells?

mitosis is the process of 1 cell becoming 2 cells.


Does mitosis produce cells that are different from one another?

The cells are identical because the Chromosomes line up in the middle, duplicate themsleves and split apart one of each pair to each side of the cell. Then the cell membranes pinches apart in the middle. This forms two daughter cells.


What is the difference between cell division and mitosis?

cell division includes mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis is with one parent cell and meiosis is with 2 parent cells.
