• it makes energy

• it stores wastes

• it is responsible for making food

What is the order of the cell cycle

• interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase,telophase, cytokinesis

• prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, interphase, cytokinesis

• interphase, metaphase, prophase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis

During Interphase

• Chromosomes lines up in the middle of the cell

• Two new nuclei form

• Two new identical cells are created

• The cell grows and DNA gets copied

During Anaphase

• Chromosomes pair up with their copy

• Two new nuclei form

• Two new identical cells are created

• Chromosome pairs separate and move away from each other
