NEED HELP ASAP While cutting potatoes to increase their surface size before you cook them, you accidentally cut your finger. Once the bleeding stops, underlying cells begin to divide to repair the damage through the cell cycle. During interphase, how does a cell prepare for division? Describe cell division, including the processes of mitosis and cytokinesis. Be sure to describe the mitotic steps.

GIVE BRAINLEST

During mitosis, the nucleus divides. Mitosis is followed by cytokinesis, when the cytoplasm divides, resulting in two cells. After cytokinesis, cell division is complete. Scientists say that one parent cell, or the dividing cell, forms two genetically identical daughter cells, or the cells that divide from the parent cell. The term "genetically identical" means that each cell has an identical set of DNA, and this DNA is also identical to that of the parent cell. If the cell cycle is not carefully controlled, it can cause a disease called cancer, which causes cell division to happen too fast. A tumor can result from this kind of growth.

During mitosis, the two sister chromatids must be split apart. Each resulting chromosome is made of 1/2 of the "X". Through this process, each daughter cell receives one copy of each chromosome. Mitosis is divided into four phases:

Prophase: The chromosomes "condense," or become so tightly wound that you can see them under a microscope. The wall around the nucleus, called the nuclear envelope, disappears. Spindles also form and attach to chromosomes to help them move.

Metaphase: The chromosomes line up in the center of the cell. The chromosomes line up in a row, one on top of the next.

Anaphase: The two sister chromatids of each chromosome separate, resulting in two sets of identical chromosomes.

Telophase: The spindle dissolves and nuclear envelopes form around the chromosomes in both cells.

"1. it should be, it has been for about 20 years, and it's really not much different in the end than breeding animals to have particular traits. there are always concerns about genetically engineered animals/plants affecting the environment in unexpected negative ways, but i can't think of an example where the fears didn't turn out to be baseless.  

first, as you point out, it would be a great advance in pharmacology, to be able to tailor drugs and their doses to me. the pros involve better medical treatment. the cons involve privacy issues like insurance companies denying coverage to people with genetic risk factors. looking at dna markers wouldn't affect the frequency of genetic diseases, but it would allow detection of them earlier. and ok, actually i suppose that if people used this information to avoid having children with genetic diseases, some might decrease in frequency."
