What are the phases of mitosis and what happens in each?
xxMikexx [17]

Explanation:

Mitosis is the nuclear division followed by cytokinesis, which leads to the production of two daughter cells.

<u>It includes the following phases - </u>

1. Interphase - In this process the Cell actively metabolizes and prepare itself for the process of mitosis and the Chromosomes are not clearly discerned .

2. Prophase - In this phase , the Chromatin gets to condense and can be visualized under a light microscope and  Nucleolus gets disappeared , Centrioles begins to move to opposite ends of the cell .

3. Metaphase - In this phase the Spindle fibers gets align the chromosome along the middle of the nucleus of the cell thereby creating a metaphase plate .

4. Anaphase - In this phase , the chromosomes which got paired up gets separate at the kinetochores and move to the opposite directions of the cell , the Spindle microtubules and physical interaction among polar microtubules is responsible for kinetochore movement.

5. Telophase - In this phase , the Chromatids completely move to the opposite poles of the cell , and new membranes start forming around the daughter nuclei and the Chromosomes disperse and become invisible. Cytokinesis starts.

6. Cytokinesis - In this final process the Actin fiber ring around the center of the cell contracts and create the cell into two daughter cells.

High blood and urine glucose (sugar) is characteristic of a disorder called ____________.
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Is characteristic of Diabetes.

Explanation:

Diabetes is a disorder in which blood sugar increases due to the fact that there is mechanism by which sugar enters the cell is somehow affected.

There are different types of this disorder, the most common ones are the following,

1. Diabetes type 1, is an autoimmune disorder in which the cells that are in charge of producing insulin are destroyed, as a consequence there is not enough insulin (responsible for allowing the glucose channels to open and transport glucose into the cell). Therefore, sugar remains in blood circulation. When glucose levels are too high, it starts filtering through the kidneys and ends up in the urine.

2. Diabetes type 2, is triggered by different factors, there are genetic and environmental factors that trigger this disease. In this case, cells are 'resistant' to the insulin effect, so the body reacts by secreting more insulin. As a consequence, cells in charge of secreting insulin are overworked and at the same time, the body cells keep on increasing the resistance to insulin. There is a point in which this compensation fails to work, and blood sugar rises. When the levels become high, glucose starts filtering through the kidneys and ends up in the urine.

There are more types of diabetes, such as gestational diabetes or LADA. In this cases the cause of the disease varies, but the outcome is the same, increased blood glucose levels and presence of glucose in the urine.
