▪Mitosis is nuclear division that produces two genetically identical daughter nuclei, each containing the same number of chromosomes as the parent nucleus. ▪Mitosis a controlled process Interphase ▪Interphase has G1, S and G2 Prophase the chromosomes condense shorter. the centrioles move to opposite ends of the cell which...
The basics of the nutrient cycles Nutrients are taken up by producers. The producers takes in the nutrients which become organic molecules When the producer is eaten- nutrients go into consumers This then is passed onto other consumers. As producers and consumers die- the molecules are broken down by saprobionitc...
