When its good and ready.
A cell has to pass through the 3 phases of interphase; G1, S and G2. Then it has to pass through the 4 phases of mitosis; prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. Then it has to undergo cytokinesis. Then the cell has divided.
Mitosis is when one cell divides into two.
A somatic, or body, cell divides into two genetically identical daughter cells.
When a cell divides, the nucleus divides first in a process called mitosis, ensuring that each new cell receives a complete set of genetic information. After the nucleus divides, the rest of the cell, including the cytoplasm and organelles, divides in a process known as cytokinesis to form two separate daughter cells.
Because each cell needs its own set of DNA, there must be two sets of DNA present in a cell before it divides into two.
This is called binary fission.
Mitosis is when one cell divides into two.

Mitosis
The process by which one cell divides to form two new cells is called cell division. It is an essential process for growth, repair, and maintenance of living organisms.
One cell divides and creates two identical cells.
In mitosis the cell divides once. The two cells, in some cases, may then divide again, but mitosis is just one cell dividing into two cells.
