Mitosis

The division of the cell nucleus resulting in two daughter nuclei, each with the same number of chromosomes as the parent nucleus; mitosis consists of prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Cytokinesis usually overlaps the telophase stage.

Homologous Chromosomes

Pairs of chromosomes in a diploid organism that have the same gene sequence, inherited from each parent, and pair up during meiosis.
