Answer:

When cells divide to form 2 identical daughter cells

Step-by-step explanation:

Think PMAT

Prophase-Chromosomes condense

Metaphase -Chromosomes line up in the middle

Anaphase- Chromosomes are split and turned into chromatids, which are half of a chromosome

Telophase-The cytoplasm splits and 2 new cells are formed

Mitosis is a process where a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells (cell division). During mitosis one cell? divides once to form two identical cells. The major purpose of mitosis is for growth and to replace worn out cells.
