3.23 understand that division of a diploid cell by mitosis produces two cells which contain identical sets of chromosomes

Mitosis is when a cell replicates it self to make an identical copy.
A diploid cell is one with 23 pairs of chromosomes.
(you don't need to know the stage names, but its useful to know how mitosis happens.)
