Modelling Mitosis

This is interphase, this is the longest phase of the cell cycle. Interphase is when the cell grows and is a stringy substance.

Early Prophase: Spindle Fibers form after the nucleolus disappears.

Late Prophase: The spindle fibers start attaching to the centromeres. The nuclear membrane disappears, the spindle fibres attach to the chromosomes.

Metaphase: all the chromosomes move towards the middle of the cell. (equator)

Anaphase: the spindle fibres start to pull the sister chromatids to opposite sides of the pole

Telophase: One complete set of chromosomes is at each pole of the cell. A nuclear membrane forms around each set. Then the nucleolus forms and the cell is ready to divide.

Cytokinesis: The final stage of the cell cycle and divides the 2 nuclei into 2 daughter cells.

 

That is how mitosis and the cell cycle work.

Grammar Video Project “Complex and Compound/Complex Sentences”

Hello, I’m Aiden and me and Michael made a video on 2 types of sentences, complex and compound/complex sentences. It was a very fun project to work on I like the outcome of it. Now I’m going to tell you what a complex sentence is and what a compound/complex sentence is

 

So, a Complex sentence is a sentence made up of a dependent thought and an independent thought. The independent thought and the dependent thought can go in any order, as long as the idea get out right. Here is an examples

“When Obi-Wan was fighting Grevious, he didn’t that he would using a gun.”

The first part was a dependent sentence, and the second part was an independent sentence.

 

“When he lost his hands, Anakin was in so much pain.”

The first part was an independent sentence, and the second part is a dependent sentence.

 

A compound/complex sentence is when you have 2 independent clauses or more and at the very least, have at least 1 dependent clause. Here are some examples.

 

“During a harsh rainstorm, I was outside, and doing my job.”

The “During a harsh rainstorm” was a dependent clause and the “I was outside and doing my job” were the independent clauses.

 

“After losing Leia, the rebellion was more motivated, to fight back.”

 

“After losing Leia, the rebellion was more motivated” was an independent sentence and the “to fight back.” was and dependent thought.

 

Here are some test Questions

  1. What order does a complex sentence have to go in?

a) dependent then independent

b) independent then dependent

c) It doesn’t matter the order

d) I wasn’t paying attention

 

2. How many dependent clauses do you need for a compound/complex sentence?

a) at least 10

b)  at least 1

c) at least 5

d) at least 8

 

3. How many independent clauses do you need for a compound/complex sentence?

a) 3

b) 5

c) 6

d) 2

 

4. How many dependent thoughts can go into a complex sentence?

a) 1

b) 3

c) 2

d) 4
