Today is Science Solution Tuesday. In this blog, I will be explaing mitosis. Mitosis is a process in which a cell has to complete in order to mutate in to two cells. There is five stages in all. Sometimes it takes a cell a while to complete a certain stage. After the cells are done with all five stages, they form daughter cells. I will blog more about daughter cells later. The steps in mitosis are profase, anaphase, telophase, interphase, and metaphase. The first stage a cell goes thought is interphase is when the cells are going to get ready for prophase. In prophase, the cells cromatin is all over the place and getting ready to divide. The next phase ismetaphase. Metaphase is when the cells meet up to the cells equator. This is when the nucleus is deciding whos going to go to the next cell. The nuclus is the brain that sepreats the chromatin, so that both cells have an equal amount. The next phase is anaphase. Anaphase is when the cells are slowly turning into two cells. This is like it is almost gonna pop their bubble, so they can be free. The next phase is telophase. This is when the cells stretch to the end and are ready to come out.  The last step is cytokinesis. Cytokineses is when a cell wall starts to form to break the barrier. There you have it once the cell wall is formed you have two new cells!

This is the process of mitosis. We are currently learning this in my science class.
