Cell Cycle: The cell cycle starts with one parent cell and ends with TWO identical daughter cells (one copy of DNA is distributed into each new cell).
Why do cells divide?
The larger the cell becomes, the more demand it places on it's DNA
-
Interphase (Very first step) - Period of a cell's stage in when performing it's designed function. The cell spends 78% of its life in interphase.

-
M-phase (Mitosis)(PMAT)(Second stage) - Occurs in body cells. Division of the nucleus which results in 2 cells with genetic material identical to the original cell
- Prophase (pro = before) = chromosomes condense to become visible; nuclear envelope disappears
- Metaphase (meta = middle) = chromosomes line up along the equator
- Anaphase = sister chromatids pull apart at the centromere
- Telophase = chromatids migrate to opposite poles; nuclear envelope begins to reappear; chromosomes begin to uncoil (opposite of prophase)
