    Many biochemical activities occur here‚ such as the synthesis of enzymes. The S phase concerns DNA replication (genome synthesis). Each homologous chromosome replicates‚ resulting in 2 sister chromatids attached by the centromere. It is the most important phase. G2 is where the cell prepares for cell division. The nucleus becomes defined‚ spindle proteins form‚ the centrioles replicate‚ the microtubules radiate from the centrosomes‚ enzymes and other proteins are synthesized‚ mitochondrion are replicated

    determines how living organisms look or work. They also control the manufacture of proteins in a cell. There are about 35 000 genes found in almost every healthy cell. Scientists are constantly conducting experiments on genes. Genetic modification is one of such experiments. Genetic modification refers to the deliberate alteration of the genetic structure or DNA of an organism in order to give it new abilities and produce a desired effect. Organisms that are modified with DNA from another organism are called

    Mitosis is the process in which a cell breaks apart its chromosome to eventually produce two identical daughter cells. The cell spends 10% of its time in mitosis. The cell goes through four stages in order to complete this task. The stages are Prophase‚ Metaphase‚ Anaphase and Telophase. Mitosis only occurs in eukaryotic cells and the process is different for different species. Mitosis is fast and very complex. The first phase is Prophase. In prophase‚ the chromosomes the chromosomes start to

    Inquiry • Skills Lab Chapter 11 Lab Modeling Meiosis Problem How does meiosis increase genetic variation? Introduction Most cells in organisms that reproduce sexually are diploid. They have two sets of chromosomes and two complete sets of genes. Gametes are an exception. Gametes are the cells that combine during sexual reproduction. In animals‚ these cells are called sperm and eggs. Gametes are haploid cells with only one set of chromosomes. Meiosis is the process in which haploid cells form

    The range of an organism and its dispersal is limited or affected by many things in its surroundings. These things can be slightly different in their specifics from organism to organism but generally‚ for all organisms‚ these are the main restrictions to their range and dispersal (either natal or breeding). The first limiting factor to the distance they can travel from their population or parent is the resources available. One artificial barrier is habitat fragmentation by humans and their use of
