Hydrolysis of ATP releases energy by transferring a phosphate from ATP to another molecule in a process called ________________.
phosophorylation
The raw materials for photosynthesis.
CO2 and H20
This step of mitosis is when the kinetochores appear at the centromere.
prometaphase
This step of meiosis (be specific) is when the tetrads line up down the center of the cell.
