What is the order of mitosis |
Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase |
|
Describe Interphase |
Before Mitosis actually begins, the DNA is being replicated and the cell is making proteins. The chromosomes are invisible |
|
Describe Prophase |
Chromosomes become visible because the nuclear envelope disintegrates, centrioles move to each end of the cell |
|
Describe Metaphase |
Spindle fibres form, chromosomes line up on the centre of the cell |
|
Describe Anaphase |
Spindle fibres attach to the chromatids begin to contract, so the chromatids are pulled to the polrs |
|
Describe telophase |
Chromosomes are on different sides of the cell and the nuclear envelope veins to reform around them |
|
Describe cytokinesis |
Cytoplasm divides and the cell splits into two |
|
What is the difference between malignant and benign tumours |
Malignant tumours grow rapidly and are less compact making them more life threatening. Benign tumours grow slower, are more compact and this makes them less life threatening |
