    Mitosis

    The process by which a cell divides into two identical daughter cells, ensuring the accurate replication of genetic material and maintaining the original cell's functions.

    Indicator

    A substance that changes color in the presence of an acid or a base, indicating the pH of a solution.

    Refraction

    The bending of light as it passes from one medium to another, due to a change in the speed of light.

    Neutralization reaction

    A type of chemical reaction where an acid and a base react to form salt and water.
