deoxyribonucleic acid
direct the cell's activities and consist of 4 amino acid:
adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine

they are created in the nucleolus which contain information and protein
it also has Uracil which replace thymine

meiosis
form sex cells (egg and sperm)
mitosis
form somatic cells
Interphase
active phase: warps itself into a chromosome structure and replicate itself (clothes pins).
prophase
centromeres migrate to opp end of the cell and create a mitotic spindle. The nucleus disappears
metaphase
middle: the chromosomes line up in the middle
anaphase
the centromeres seperate and the genetic materials divides to opp directions
telephase
clevage: chromosomes complete their migration and two daughter cells are created.
anabolism
building, inputting energy
