Process of Mitosis

Using helium as an example of propane, physical science middle schoolers experiment with and graph the relationship between temperature and volume in gases. In a whole-class demonstration, they show how molecules behave under different...

Investigate the ins and outs of cell division with this comprehensive set of activities. Detailed instructions for six different activities and your choice of eight different creative assessments can be found within this resource. By...

The lecturer starts by emphasizing that the mitotic process is a separate mechanism from cytokinesis—the cytoplasm splitting to become two cells. The video continues by explaining the stages of mitosis in great detail. Each stage is...

Although you cannot clone yourself, the cells in your body can clone themselves, and, in fact, you wouldn't grow if they didn't! Viewers learn all about this process in a video that explains the difference between the processes of...

Since an atom can't have a partial neutron, the atomic mass should always be a whole number, but it isn't! An interactive video lesson explains how the atomic mass number from the periodic table incorporates the isotopes of an element....

Watch as an animated cell goes through the process of mitosis as DNA coils and bunches into chromosomes. Once the nuclear membranes dissolve, spindles pull chromatids to opposite sides and stretch the cell. The video ends as mitosis...

Ever heard of von Neumann machines? These self-replicating machines could allow for the expansion of human civilization beyond Earth. The video describes how this type of technology could open many doors for exploration and life.

Aren't mitosis and meiosis the same thing? A helpful flow chart demonstrates the difference between mitosis and meiosis on Paul Andersen's Smart Board. Time lapse videos include show mitosis and cytokinesis.

Although we cannot clone ourselves yet, our bodies make copies of our cells every day. The video begins by defining diploid and haploid. Learners see the cell cycle and begin to understand what happens in interphase before mitosis...

You slough off all your skin cells once every seven years. Thank goodness for mitosis, or we would all be looking pretty strange without skin. The video begins by reviewing the cell cycle, looks at an overview of cells undergoing...
