Mitosis!!!

  Hey SuperSara here! Were going to be talking bout mitosis today! Yay! Here is a cool video  to watch before I start yapping... SO WATCH IT. Just kidding, but you really should.


  Soooooooooo, Mitosis. You just saw each stage, but let's just forget about prometaphase. *WHOOSH!* It's gone! Now let's add interpahse. Just put it in the beginning.  So in order:  Interpahse, Prophase, Metaphase, Anapahse, and Telopahse.  Mitosis takes one cell and turns it into two. Mitosis made you. Your dad gives you 23 chromosomes, and your mom gives you 23 chromosomes. Thus giving you 46 (haha "thus").  When mitosis is done, you have two new, shiny, daughter cells. I don't why they are called daughter cells and not son cells, so don't ask!



  Interphase: Not really a stage of mitosis. But, an important part in a cell's life cycle. It's the longest part in the cell cycle where  DNA replicates, centrioles divide, and proteins are produced. 




Prophase: In this phase, the nucleolus fades and chromatids condense into chromosomes.


Metaphase: Chromosomes line up in the center of the cell.




Anaphase: Spindle fibers shorten and the chromatids are pulled apart and begin moving to the cell poles.




Telophase: The chromosomes move to opposite ends of the cell, two new nuclear envelopes form, and the chromosomes uncoil. Viola! Two new daughter cells!




  Sorry Guys, no video! Hope you still enjoyed! SuperSaraSuperBye!

  3. Hey, SuperSara. Great blog. I really liked it. Great pictures, great info. But I don't think you can just get rid of prometaphase. It's something you need to know. So, it works out. I mean, I put prometaphase on my blog, but not interphase. So, great job.
