Mitosis Notes

Tuesday January 29^th

The two most important stages of mitosis to understand are metaphase and anaphase.  These two phases make sure that DNA is divided equally between the two “daughter cells” What is happening during these two phases? 

During Metaphase sister chromatids are lining up in the middle of the nucleus and the splitting apart during anaphase.

We then went through the following notes and did worked through mitosis with our chromosome models.

These would be chromosomes that have condensed
and became visible but have not "arranged" themselves
yet.

the chromosomes have lined up at the center of your
nucleus so that sister chromatids will be separated.
