MAIN IDEA:
Chromosomes condense at the start of mitosis.
L
What is a chromosome?
One long continuous thread of DNA that has many genes and regulatory information.
2.
Why do chromosomes condense at the start of mitosis?
So they can be more easily divided between the two nuclei.
3,
Why are chromosomes not condensed during all stages of the cell cycle?
Proteins need to be able to access genes during other stages of the cell cycle so that they can
be used to make proteins or so that the entire DNA sequence can be copied.
Refer to Figure 5,5 to sketch how DNA goes from a long stringy form to a tightly condensed
form, Label the parts of the condcnsed" duplicated chromosome,

and cytokinesis produce two genetically identical daughter cells.
How does interphasç prepare a cell to divide?
During interphase, a cell duplicates its DNA and orgnelles.
