Q

3 types of cancer treatments

A

1.surgery-ro cut it out with a scalpel or lazer

2.chemotherapy-chemical compounds kill the cancer cells or stop their DNA from making new cells,given by injections or tablets

3.Radiotherapy-can use machines injections of compunds and capsules

Q

Prophase

A

Centrosome is made of 2 separate centriols.

Fibres form between the centrosome to form a spindle.

Centrosome moves to opposite sides of the cell.

Each chromosome is visible as 2 chromatids joined by a Centromere

Q

Metaphase

A

The nucleur membrane has disintegrated

Chromosomes line up at the equator of the cell

Each chrimosome is now attached by a centromere

Q

Anaphase

A

Each chromosome separates into its sister chromatid

Each chromatid is now pulled towards opposite poles of the cell

Q

Telophase

A

Cytokinesis starts by the cell membrane staring to constrict at the equator of the cell

A nuclear membrane and nucleolus form in each daughter cell

Each daughter cell has the same chromosome as the mother cell
