The cell division is the process by which a parent cell divides, when a mother cell divides into two or more daughter cells. The cell division usually takes place as part of a larger cell cycle.The chromosomes appear shortest and thickest during the metaphase and are arranged at the equator and form a plain plate called because the equatorial or because the metaphase plate is thus readily visible.
