During mitosis, the DNA of a cell is replicated and then evenly distributed into two daughter cells. Initially, during the S phase of the cell cycle, each chromosome is duplicated, resulting in two identical sister chromatids. These chromatids are then separated and pulled to opposite poles of the cell during mitosis, ensuring that each daughter cell receives an identical set of chromosomes. This process is necessary for growth, tissue repair, and asexual reproduction, as it maintains genetic consistency across cells.

During interphase, a cell undergoes growth and prepares for division. This phase is divided into three sub-phases: G1 (cell growth and normal functions), S (DNA replication, where the cell's genetic material is duplicated), and G2 (further growth and preparation for mitosis). Interphase is crucial for ensuring that the cell has all the necessary components and genetic material to successfully divide and function in the subsequent phases of the cell cycle.
