Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The two events that must occur before mitosis begins.
Introduction:
Mitosis is a biological process of cell division, in which the parent cell gives rise to two genetically identical daughter cells. During this process, DNA which carries the genetic information is duplicated and distributed.
