karyokinesis
Karyokinesis is the process in cell division during which the cell's nucleus, including the chromosomes within the nucleus, divides. It is the first part of the overall process of cell division (mitosis or meiosis), which continues with cytokinesis, the division of the cytoplasm to form two separate daughter cells.
Webster Dictionary
Karyokinesisnoun
the indirect division of cells in which, prior to division of the cell protoplasm, complicated changes take place in the nucleus, attended with movement of the nuclear fibrils; -- opposed to karyostenosis. The nucleus becomes enlarged and convoluted, and finally the threads are separated into two groups which ultimately become disconnected and constitute the daughter nuclei. Called also mitosis. See Cell development, under Cell
Etymology: [NL., fr. Gr. ka`ryon a nut, kernel + kinei^n to move.]
