Updated Mitosis Video. The Amoeba Sisters walk you through the reason for mitosis with mnemonics for prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Expand details to see table of contents.👇 Video handout here: http://www.amoebasisters.com/handouts Table of Contents: 00:00 Intro 0:44 Why is Mitosis Important? 2:00 Why Don't You Want Cells Dividing all the Time? 2:23 Interphase (occurs before mitosis) 2:55 DNA and Chromosomes 4:07 Chromosome Replication 5:30 PMAT Mitosis Stages 7:30 Cytokinesis (actual splitting of cell) We appreciate the feedback we get for what we need to clarify or should have added. Please see our pinned comment! The Amoeba Sisters videos demystify science with humor and relevance. The videos center on Pinky's certification and experience in teaching biology at the high school level.
