Mitosis is the quiet force that keeps life moving. Every living thing starts as one tiny cell, but the magic of life comes from cells multiplying, repairing, and renewing themselves. Mitosis makes this possible by creating two identical cells from one, keeping DNA perfect and the body working in harmony.
A cell doesn’t divide randomly. First, it prepares, copying DNA and making everything it needs. Then the chromosomes line up, split evenly, and move to opposite sides. Finally, the cell divides completely, producing two new cells ready to grow, repair, and support life.
This process is essential for growth, healing wounds, replacing old cells, and even helping some plants and simple organisms reproduce. It maintains stability while carrying life forward, ensuring every new cell functions exactly as it should.
Mistakes can happen, leading to problems like cancer or genetic errors. But when mitosis works correctly, it is unstoppable — fueling growth, maintaining balance, and powering life’s endless cycle. Mitosis is not just cell division; it is the engine of life, repair, and survival, silently working in every living organism.
