Study Notes

Mitosis Overview

The primary goal of mitosis is to equally divide the replicated DNA among two daughter cells.

Cell Cycle Phases

Mitosis occurs in the M phase (mitotic phase) of the cell cycle.

Spindle Fibers Role

The spindle fibers play a crucial role in mitosis by separating the duplicated chromosomes and aligning them at the center of the cell.
They then pull the sister chromatids apart, ensuring each new daughter cell receives a complete set of chromosomes.
