An organism describes an individual. You are an organism. I am an organism. The mosquito that flies by your window is an organism. An organism is a single, living thing and can be an animal, a plant, or a fungus. Organisms grow and respond to their environment.

A population is the term we use to describe multiple individuals or organisms of a single species that live within a particular geographic area. For example, there may be one population of painted turtles in one state and another population of painted turtles 250 miles away in another state.

During mitosis, the ________ breaks down and the duplicated ___________ are separated and evenly distributed to opposite sides o

JulsSmile [24]

During mitosis, the nuclear membrane breaks down and the duplicated chromosomes are separated and evenly distributed to opposite sides of the cell. Cytokinesis involves the division of the cytoplasm and the organelles that are contained within.

This describes the process of cell division. All of these events happen in the M phase of mitosis. The breaking down and fragmentation of the nuclear membrane to expose the genetic material is in the prophase. The next phase is the metaphase when the duplicated chromosomes align in a straight line (metaphase plate). Anaphase involves the separation of chromatids and by the time the chromatids reach the opposite side then the cell enters telophase. Lastly, cytokinesis involves restoration of the nuclear membrane, division of the cytoplasm, and production of two daughter cells.
