What happens to the DNA during Mitosis

Exact copies of the DNA are made

The DNA is combined from the mother and father

The DNA is split in half and given to each daughter cell

The cell creates a new genetic code

1

It separates the cell into two new ones

It makes the cell grow and get bigger

It duplicates the DNA

It checks the cell to make sure everything is working properly

1

To make sure the DNA is coded properly

So that border patrol can check vehicles

To ensure everything is prepared for the next stage in the cycle

To ensure that cells don't reproduce uncontrollably

S phase		Cell division
G2 phase		Cell increases in size and prepares its DNA to replicate
Mitosis (M) phase		Resting, non-dividing cell
G1 phase		Replication of DNA
G0 phase		Continued cell growth getting ready for division
