  • Explain the role of the nucleus, 

    the nucleus contains genetic material including DNA which controls the activity of the cell
  • Explain the role of the cell membrane,
    controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell
  • Explain the role of the mitochondria 

    contains the enzyme for resperation and where energy is released for resperation
  • explain the role of the cell wall 

    provides structure and support to the cell
  • what is the role of chloroplast

    contains a free pigment called chlorophyll where photosynthesis takes place and it absorbed sunlight
  • what happens in interphase?
    chromosomes replicate new organelles made
  • prophase?
    chromosomes condense spindle fibers form nuclear membrane breaks down
  • metaphase? 

    chromosomes line up along the middle of the cell. chromosomes are attached attached to spindle fibres
  • anaphase/
    spindle fibers contract. chromosomes split chromosomes separate or are pulled apart to opposite ends of the cell by the spindle fibers
  • prophase
    chromo condense
    the membrane around the nucleus breaks down
    chromosomes lie free in the cytoplasm
  • metaphse
    the chromosomes line up at the center of the cell
  • mitosis is important because it allows growth, repair and reproduction.
  • anaphase
    spindle fivers pull the chromosomes apart
    the chrono tide are pulled to oposite ends of the cell
  • cytokinesis
    the cytoplasm and cell memberane divide to form 2 daughter cells
