wall)

- serve protective function -> the
Positions in a gene where more
enzymes that replicate DNA cannot
continue replication all the way to the than one base may be present
end of the chromosome -> sacrificing
the repetitive sequence

Mitosis
- chromatids have reached the poles = chromosomes
- at each pole chromosomes are pulled near MTOC -> nuclear
membrane reforms around them -> chromosomes uncoil,
nucleolus is formed
Proteins
- cell is usually already dividing again
Meiosis 1
- keep strands apart allowing the
- chromosomes uncoil, reduction of chromosome number from template strand to be copied
diploid to haploid completed -> cytokinesis
Meiosis 2

blood -> clot ( = thrombosis) ->
