The four main phases of mitosis are:

Prophase- In the first half:The chromosomes start to shrink. The cytoskeleton begins to form the mitotic spindle, which will grow between the centrosomes and organize the chromosomes.The nucleolus goes away.
                  In the second half: The chromosomes become extremely compact. The nuclear envelope disappears and all the DNA comes out. Some of the mitotic spindle starts to catch chromosomes.

Metaphase- The mitotic spindle moves all of the chromosomes across the middle of the cell.

Anaphase- The two chromatids of each chromosome are pulled apart from each other and become their own chromosomes. Loose microtubules push the ends of the cell to make it longer.

Telophase- The mitotic spindle is broken back down into microtubules. Two new nuclei appear (one for each new cell). The chromosomes return to their normal form (not all squished down).

Another big step is cytokinesis, which starts either during Anaphase, or Telophase. In animal cells, the cell is pinched around the middle to create the two new cells. In plant cells, a cell plate comes into the middle of the cell and separates it into the two new cells.

The main four steps can be remembered using the acronym PMAT.

Complete the sentences to correctly describe steps in fatty acid synthesis. move the terms to the appropriate blanks. some terms
saw5 [17]

The synthesis of fatty acids starts with a preparatory step in which acetyl-CoA is mediated from mitochondria to the cytosol. However, it cannot pass through the membrane, so it is transported as citrate, which is cleaved to acetyl CoA and oxaloacetate.

In the cytosol, acetyl CoA is transformed to malonyl CoA, that is, a three carbon compound. Fatty acid synthesis starts with the conduction of acetyl group from acetyl CoA to fatty acid synthase.

Two carbon groups, supplied to malonyl CoA, are supplemented to the developing acyl chain in a series of steps involving condensation, reduction, and dehydration reactions. Elongation of the fatty acid chain ceases at 16 carbon atoms, after seven cycles, as the free free fatty acid is discharged.
