Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Can you distinguish any cells? Yes‚ you can identify cells that are undergoing development. In prophase‚ the chromosomes make and x shape. In metaphase‚ the chromosomes are moved to the middle of the cell. In anaphase‚ the chromosomes look like they are being pulled apart. And in telophase‚ the cell starts

The process of osmosis and its importance to living organisms Osmosis is the process by which there is a net movement of water through a semi permeable membrane from an area of high water potential to an area of low water potential. Within a cell‚ osmosis has the following effect. If the water potential of the cell is lower than that around the cell water will move across a concentration gradient into the cell. If this is the case‚ the increase in water in the cell‚ may cause the cell to swell

more visible in aquatic environments such as streams‚ lakes‚ and marshes. Many lakes and rivers are already acidic without the effects of acid rain. Their pH levels go up to 6 and 8. Once a stream or lake has been affected by acid rain‚ the organisms living in the aquatic environment begin to die out. The solution to decreasing the amount of damages acid rain has on the environment is to lower the sulfur

Abstract Acid Rain has a lot of effects on living organisms and on the environment. This experiment has two purposes. One is to determine the acidity of rainwater in certain areas in the Philippines. Another purpose is to determine which type of area-urban or rural- is more subjected to acid rain. The experiment was done by first collecting rainwater from selected rural and urban areas. After the collection was done‚ the rainwater samples were tested using a pH meter. The results of the pH test

Introduction: Mitosis occurs in all eukaryotic cell tissues and produces genetically identical daughter cells with a complete set of chromosomes. In humans‚ mitosis produces somatic cells that are diploid‚ which means they contain two non-identical copies of each of the twenty-three chromosomes. One copy is derived from the person’s mother and the other from the person’s father. Meiosis‚ on the other hand‚ occurs only in testis and ovary tissues‚ producing sperm and ova (eggs). The gametes that

some of them have gone‚ and others--like Fortran‚ have managed to stay around. The sheer number of languages makes it impossible to cover them all in any depth--indeed‚ even the most important languages we will only have time to discuss in shallow detail today. As a result‚ we talk about only the most important languages--those that had historical significance either for their new ideas or their influences on the languages that followed them. Let me admit‚ up front‚ that I am not a history

Interphase: DNA replicates ( S-phase) Prophase: Nucleolus fades and chromatin (replicated DNA and associated proteins) condenses into chromosomes. Each replicated chromosome comprises two chromatids‚ both with the same genetic information. Microtubules of the cytoskeleton‚ responsible for cell shape‚ motility and attachment to other cells during interphase‚ disassemble Pro Metaphase: - nuclear envelope breaks down- no longer a recognizable nucleus. Mitotic spindle fibers elongate from the centrosomes

A brief description to what is going on should be attached to the pictures. This is important to understand the basics of cell division which is necessary growth‚repair

Interphase Prophase I Early Prophase I D.N.A coils tightly and individual chromosomes become visible as single structures Homologous chromosomes become associated in synapsis. Each pair of chromosome is called a bivalent. Centrioles divide and move to the opposite poles of the cell‚ and spindles start to form Late Prophase I The bivalents duplicate to form tetrads (four-chromatid groups).The nuclear membrane disintegrates. Chromosomes join at points called chiasmata where crossing over
