<u>The original cell that divides is called the </u><u>parent (mother)</u><u> cell</u>, while the two, new identical cells are called daughter cells. A cell normally divides into two new cells (once it has copied all its DNA). This process is called <u>mitosis</u>. Each new cell gets a complete copy of all the DNA, bundled up as 46 chromosomes.
<em>The cell cycle (stages in a cell's life) is made up of stages in which the cell grows and rests, copies its DNA, and </em><em><u>divides</u></em><em> into two new cells.</em>
Colonial victory in the Revolutionary War occurred not only because of the skills of George Washington, but also because of the colonies' substantial distance from Great Britain and most importantly, because of participation of the French.
