Margarita [4]3 years ago

DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is the molecule in living organisms wherein the genetic code or <em>genes</em> is stored. The structural conformation of DNA in the nucleus of the cells is called <em>chromatin </em><em />and in cell division, chromatin is grouped into a certain number (46, in humans, for instance) called <em>chromosomes.

</em>DNA provides instructions for hereditary such that a part of DNA is transcribed into messenger RNA or mRNA for the genetic code to be transported outside the nucleus. The mRNA is then translated into polypeptides to form proteins that form specific functions in the human body.<em>

Why do cells stay small
Dafna1 [17]
Ans: Cells are so small because it allows them to have a better surface area to volume ratio. This makes it much easier for the cell to bring in necessary nutreints and excrete wastes. Also the smaller the cell is, the less time it takes to replicate the small cell as opposed to a bigger cell.

Telophase: The entire cell was separated to each side but was not split into its own cell.
Cytokinesis: In this step the cell had totally separated and there was now two separate daughter cells.
