Each Chromosome Is Composed of a Single Long Molecule of ___________?
DNA that is typically loosely spread out as thin threads within the nucleus is known as ________.
nucleosome
chromatin
chromosome
chromatid
double helix
Mitosis
(Name the cell division phase on the line.)
DNA and centrosomes are replicated.
Name:
Chromatin condenses and supercoils to form
dense chromosomes. Since DNA was previously
replicated, the chromosomes are now present
as paired sister chromatids. Centrosomes move
to opposite sides of the nucleus and will define
the orientation of the division.
Name:
DO
