Displacement is a change of position. Average velocity is a change in position over time. Acceleration is a constant change in velocity over time. Today you will do a lab in which you will observe a ping pong ball roll down two metre sticks. Make a data table and graph position over time. Hand in your graph on teams.

steps of cell cycle: you should write a table showing the steps as well as the
FORM OF DNA
role of other organelles
1. INTERPHASE -
a. cell is undergoing growth. After a period of growth, it prepares to divide
b. cell replicates its DNA. Nuclear membrane is still intact
2. PROPHASE
Nuclear membrane disappears and the chromosomes are visible
3. METAPHASE
chromosomes line up in the middle and Centrioles send out the spindle fibres to attach to the centromere
4. ANAPHASE
centromeres get ripped apart and thus the chromosomes get ripped apart into separate chromatids
5. TELOPHASE
nuclear membrane reforms around the chromatids
6. CYTOKINESIS
chromatin is in the nucleus now.
This is my lesson video on mitosis and meiosis
