unorganized DNA
chromatin
organized DNA
chromosomes
number of chromosomes in most cells
46
chromosomes that have been duplicated just before cell division
chromatid
what is a Centriole do
mitosis
centromere
conects chromosomes to duplicate, attaches to centrioles, where chromatid splits

Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
how long does cell divison take
approx 2hrs
Interphase (Metabolic phase)
resting phase, longest phase, replication of DNA and Centrioles
What triggers Cell Devision
trigered by a hormone or by the cell
What Phase does Chromatin inside the nucleus become organized to form chromosomes.
Prophase
What Phase is Prophase in reverse
