No, they don't pair up in mitosis. Homologous chromosome pairing is a meiosis thing.

Nope! Homologous chromosomes pair up during meiosis, not mitosis. In mitosis, each chromosome just copies itself and then splits.

In mitosis, pairing of homologous chromosomes doesn't happen. This dance is reserved for meiosis!
