Q

things to know about cells:

A

-not all cells are created equal
-different types and numbers of organelles (muscle cells contain high levels of mitochondria for energy)

Q

prophase

A

-dna condenses into 23 distinct pairs of chromosomes
-nuclear membranes disperses
-each pair is joined together by a protein bridge called a centromere

Q

telophase

A

-nuclear membrane begins to form and chromosomes decondense into chromatin
-cell membrane begins to pinch eventually cleaving in two (cytokinesis)
