Cytokinesis: division of the cytoplasm (one cell becomes two) During cell division- supercoiled, condensed (fuzzy x structure) Replicated- 2 identical molecules of dna, held together. Mitosis: karyokinesis- division of the nucleus, cytokinesis- division of the cytoplasm (does not always have divide) Prophase: chromosomes all replicated, nuclear envelope breaks down, 4 replicated chromosomes. Metaphase: chromosomes line up in center (equatorial plate, 4 replicated chromosomes, centromere region lines up. Telophase: replicated chromosomes are separate, 8 unreplicated chromosomes, each chromosome is separate, move towards the poles, 8 unreplicated chromosomes. Cytokinesis: 4 unreplicated chromosomes, cytoplasm divided into 2 equal parts. Ploidy: number of sets of chromosomes, humans have 23 sets of chromosomes. Polyploid vs. aneuploid: polyploid- more than two sets of chromosomes (triploid, tetraploid, aneuploid- change in the number of a single chromosome, not a set.
