A process of somatic cell division which produces daughter nuclei which are identical genetically to one another and to the parent nucleus. They contain the same number of chromosomes. Mitosis produces genetically equivalent cells in the growing somatic region of organisms.

The division of somatic (body) cells used in development, growth and repair. Many tissues are composed of 'end' or differentiated cells which have a dedicated function and will no longer divide unless specially stimulated. In the developing embryo all cell types are still capable of division and 'stem cells' are probably capable of dividing many times to produce many different tissues. In mitosis, the cell preparing to divide coils and recoils its threads of DNA until it is in the compact form that we know as chromosomes. Prior to this, the cell has doubled up its DNA so that there will be enough to supply two 'daughter' cells. The chromosomes separate (disjunction) and the two sets of chromosomes are drawn to opposite ends of the cell and form a new interphase nucleus as the DNA uncoils and the two halves separate forming two identical cells.

Mitosis is the process by which a cell separates its duplicated genome into two identical halves. It is generally followed immediately by cytokinesis which divides the cytoplasm and cell membrane.
