False. Mitosis is not another name for the cell cycle; rather, it is a part of the cell cycle. The cell cycle encompasses several phases, including interphase (where the cell prepares for division by growing and replicating DNA) and the mitotic phase (M phase), which includes mitosis itself and cytokinesis. Mitosis specifically refers to the process where replicated chromosomes are separated into two genetically identical nuclei, but the cell cycle includes all stages from the cell's growth to its division and preparation for the next cycle.
