| Chromosomes | A doubled rod of condenser chromatin; contains DNA that carries genetic information. |
| Cytokinesis | The final stage where a single parent divides to form two daughter cells |
| What takes place during the three stages of the cell cycle. | Interphase( replication of DNA and growth) Mitosis( Nuclear division) Cytokinesis(Cytoplasmic division) |
| Draw and label the cell cycle | See notes. |
| Explain DNA replication and how it accounts for the way it copies itself | the process by which a DNA molecule is copied into two identical DNA molecules. |
