Understanding cell division through mitosis and cytokinesis is a fundamental process that creates genetically identical daughter cells from a parent cell.
- The process begins with interphase, which includes three crucial growth phases (G₁, S, and G₂)
- Stages of cell division process involve prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase
- Mitosis and cytokinesis explained through distinct phases where DNA condenses, aligns, separates, and finally results in cell division
- Cell division ensures genetic continuity and proper growth through carefully regulated checkpoints
- The entire process transforms chromatin into visible chromosomes and back again
