Chromosomes are composed of chromatin, a Chromosomes are composed of chromatin, a tangled mass of DNA and proteinstangled mass of DNA and proteins
The Full Number of The Full Number of Chromosomes Found in all Chromosomes Found in all Somatic Cells is the Somatic Cells is the Diploid Diploid NumberNumber (2N) (2N)
The Diploid Number The Diploid Number includes 2 of each includes 2 of each chromosome (a pair)chromosome (a pair)
5
Each Chromosome contains two identical Each Chromosome contains two identical parts called “sister chromatids” attached at a parts called “sister chromatids” attached at a centromerecentromere

The cycle of growth and division in all cellsThe cycle of growth and division in all cells
Consists of Interphase and MitosisConsists of Interphase and Mitosis
• Mitosis (M phase) is a period of cell divisionMitosis (M phase) is a period of cell division
• Interphase is a period of DNA replication and growth in Interphase is a period of DNA replication and growth in preparation for cell division preparation for cell division
