All living things are made of cells. Cells are the basic unit of life. Cells come from other cells.

This process of division is called
Mitosis. It occurs in multiple stages or phases. You will learn the details of this process in high school biology.
However, today, we are observing cells that are going through different stages of the reproductive process called Mitosis.
INTERPHASE
PROPHASE
METAPHASE
ANAPHASE
TELOPHASE
CYTOKINESIS
Normal Cell Activities – DNA in chromosomes is copied at end of stage
Chromosomes line up in middle of cell (in pairs – sister chromatids)
Nuclear membrane forms around both ends of chromatids.
Cell membrane separates into two new cells.
Chromosomes thicken and becomevisible. (getting ready to divide)
Chromatids pull apart – half go to each side
