  Amitosis \Am`i*to"sis\, n. [NL. See A- not, and Mitosis.]
     (Biol.)
     Cell division in which there is first a simple cleavage of
     the nucleus without change in its structure (such as the
     formation of chromosomes), followed by the division of the
     cytoplasm; direct cell division; -- opposed to mitosis. It
     is not the usual mode of division, and is believed by many to
     occur chiefly in highly specialized cells which are incapable
     of long-continued multiplication, in transitory structures,
     and in those in early stages of degeneration.
     [Webster 1913 Suppl.]
