As part of the cell cycle, mitosis is the nuclear division of replicated chromosomes by disconnection of the replicated chromosomes to form two genetically identical daughter nuclei. Escorted by mitosis is commonly the process of cytokinesis. The process of cytokinesis involves cell division in two, resulting in the division of the cytoplasm into two cell suites. The process of mitosis can occur in a haploid cell (23 chromosomes) or in a diploid cell (46 chromosomes). Before a cell can be ready for a mitotic division, it must primarily go through the interphase phase. After the interphase phase several other phases come into play. These phases are prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. During each specific phase certain sequences of events occur which aid in the completion of the division. During interphase, cell growth, DNA replication, centriole separation, and protein synthesis occur. This phase is recognized as the most extended period of the cell cycle, thus indicating the phase in which the cell dedicates its time...
