one sec i need to reload the page :)

destinymasha · Answer

Alright (:
And before anything, what do you think the answer to this question is?

anonymous · Answer

uh C??? O_o  uhh idk :(

destinymasha · Answer

I think the cell has to make a copy of the DNA =P

i think its a tree grow taller O_O

anonymous · Answer

C

destinymasha · Answer

Okay-
What is cell division? Just think about it for a moment and tell me what you think it is.

anonymous · Answer

is it c ????????

destinymasha · Answer

No.
Cell division is when the cell DIVIDES. Dividing means splitting into different parts. And in this case it would be the cell splitting into 2 (:
Do you understand now or should I explain it a bit more? (:

anonymous · Answer

:D Thanks for the medal!

destinymasha · Answer

Again-
What do you think?
And you're welcome (:

anonymous · Answer

can u explain to me like what it means or what Prophase is O_o im so bad at science to haha

anonymous · Answer

• Chromosomes become more coiled and can be viewed under a light microscope.

• Each duplicated chromosome is seen as a pair of sister chromatids joined by the duplicated but unseparated centromere.

• The nucleolus disappears during prophase.

• In the cytoplasm, the mitotic spindle, consisting of microtubules and other proteins, forms between the two pairs of centrioles as they migrate to opposite poles of the cell.

• The nuclear envelope disappears at the end of prophase. This signals the beginning of the substage called prometaphase.

destinymasha · Answer

Alright (:
Prophase is the time where the nuclear membrane and the nucleolus  disappears and the chromosomes become coiled, or tightly wrapped up. It's actually the first step in cell division.

anonymous · Answer

oh so B @Destinymasha

destinymasha · Answer

Yes (:
