Once upon a time, in a tiny world inside our bodies, there was a busy little cell. This cell had an important job to do, it was responsible for dividing and creating new cells. Every day, it would work tirelessly, preparing for a special process called mitosis.

In order to get ready for mitosis, our little cell had to make sure everything was in its place. It would gather all its important structures, like the nucleus and the chromosomes, and make sure they were organized.

When everything was set, our little cell would begin its dance. It would start by making a copy of its DNA, the blueprint that holds all the instructions for creating new cells. Then, it would carefully arrange the copied DNA into two sets of chromosomes.

As the dance continued, our little cell would grow long, thin fibers called spindle fibers. These fibers would attach to the chromosomes and help move them around. They were like the cell's little helpers, making sure everything was in the right place.

Once the spindle fibers were in place, our little cell would start to move the chromosomes apart. One set of chromosomes would move to one side of the cell, while the other set would move to the opposite side. It was like a carefully choreographed ballet.

After the chromosomes were separated, our little cell would start to pinch in the middle. Slowly, it would divide into two new cells. Each new cell would have its own set of chromosomes, ready to start their own journeys.

Once the division was complete, our little cell would take a well-deserved rest. It had done its job, creating two new cells from one. But the cycle would continue, as each new cell would go on to divide and create even more cells.

And so, the story of our little cell came to an end. It had shown us the amazing process of mitosis, where one cell becomes two. It reminded us that even the tiniest things can have a big impact, and that life is a beautiful cycle of growth and renewal.
