First phase of mitosis during which chromatin condense into chromosomes, the nuclear envelope breaks down, centrioles separate, and a spindle begins to form.
What is Prophase?
200
Segment of DNA that codes for a single protein or RNA. Controls what characteristics are expressed
What is a gene?

What is the Nucleus?

What is the light reactions?
400

The factors controlling the different characteristics are inherited separately and therefore are not related.
What is Law of Independent Assortment?
500
Made of cells, need energy, need to reproduce, produce waste, have to adapt to their environment, and have to have a life span.
