Cell division - Mitosis and the cell cycle
1. Growth: cell grows and increase the number of sub-cellular structures such as ribosomes and mitochondria
2. DNA synthesis: The DNA replicates to form two copies of each chromosome
3. Mitosis: One set of chromosomes is pulled to each end of the cell and the nucleus divides. Then the cytoplasm and cell membranes divide to form two cells that are identical to the parent cell
