    • mitosis
      when a cell produces a genetically identical copy of itself called a daughter cell
    • Reasons for mitosis
      te replace damaged cells
      to produce new cells for growth
      to repair tissue which has been damaged
    • Steps in Mitosis
      1. chromosomes are copied during the interface
      2. chromosomes line up on the equator
      3. chromosomes are pulled to opposite ends/poles of the cell
      4. chromosomes separate and cell divides in two
      5. two genetically identical daughter cells have been produced
