Mitosis: The Amazing Cell Process that Uses Division to Multiply! (Updated)

Guided Notes

3 key concepts

  • 1

    Mitosis is a type of cell division that is important for growth and repair of body cells, but it does not produce sperm or egg cells.

  • 2

    Before mitosis begins, the cell duplicates its DNA during interphase so that each new cell will have the same genetic information.

  • 3

    The four stages of mitosis are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase, which can be remembered using the acronym PMAT.
