@NLx360 Organelles that exclude chloroplasts and mitochondria are "divided" into the two cell. It is done unequally however but it doesn't matter because the cell has the directions to produce more organelles. Chloroplast and mitochondria however replicate on their own indipendent of this process because they have their own DNA
I understand for the most part what happens in mitosis and cell division, but when all this is happening, what is going on with all the other organelles? Do they replicate or what? Someone please help me.
@NLx360 Each daughter gets at least one of each organelle. If there was only one of a given organelle prior to mitosis, it is divided between the two daughters. How each daughter get along with only only part of an organelle, is that the DNA in each of the cells has all of the information necessary to construct any organelles that the cell needs. Thus, the cells can build more of each organelle, and they can also complete any partial organelles that they have.

WHY CANT I HAVE A TEACHER LIKE YOU?!?!? I am a senior in college and i have procastinated against taking Bio because i HATE science, if i had more teachers like you and wouldnt try to show off their articulate vocabulary and prove to me why they are doctors in the field i might be able to make an A in the class. Your videos are a BLESSING thank you so much and i hope you realize how much help you really are to Bio students all over.
Your explanations are really good! You really help me a lot c: I just need to remember all the different things and not get them confused like centromere and centriole and centro- etc haha c:
@Narutoneji100 He was on CNN apparently he graduated top of his class @ MIT & went to grad school @ Harvard (I think it was for engineering)...so basically, he's a genius who is awesome enough to want to share his knowledge with everyone. <3
@Narutoneji100 it's called staying awake in class LOL nah he's probably a Biology teacher or a chemist. he don't sound like a student more like a full grown adult.
Savaniel; If both daughter cells are the same age, then all four of the granddaughter cells will also be the same age... in fact, all the cells in our body would all be the same age, and we would have no preprogrammed cell death for individual cells. So, when does an individual cell begin its individual countdown? When it stops dividing?
Question: From what point do we start counting, to count the beginning of a life of an individual cell? I have been taught that a cell will divide a limited number of times, and will then die. Which of the daughter cells is the new one, and which the older one?
@daffodyllady If I'm not mistaken, I believe they are both considered the same age. As both have some of the newly made as well as some some of the old chromosomes, neither is composed of entirely new parts. Both daughter cells are considered equal.
Hey, just for accuracy, I think there is something wrong here. First, I appreciate the distinction between mitosis and cytokinesis! However, you are wrong to call the genetic material as CHROMOSOMES during Interphase. They are not technically chromosomes at this stage but CHROMATIN. They condense and coil into CHROMOSOMES during prophase.
i was really confused at the start of this because i have learnt that the centrosomes were spindle fibres, i picked up of that though. you are so much better than my biology teacher, she just opens up a powerpoint and goes through the slides letting us read it. no interaction what so ever. I wish you were my teacher :(
no they aren't the centromere at 18:37....they r the centrosomes but it is okay I mean if u pay attention than u know anyway that little mistake is not confusing.....
@aboo473 Yea he also likes to say nucleuses instead of nuclei, but when you make more than 2,600 educational videos you're forgiven for small errors that dont detract from the video.
I just want to say, what you are doing for the online community is a true act of philanthropy that has helped me (and thousands of others) unlock my true potential as a student and possibly contribute to society one day.
I'm taking Biology online and this guy explains things way better than my teacher and actually sounds like he is enjoying it unlike my professor who just sounds bored. Thank you for making this video!
Thank you so much - you are helping so many students who don't have the allowance money to pay for fancy-schmansy programs that aren't as clear as this is! You have helped me understand this and be able to remember this SO much better!! Thanks a ton! :)
The fact that you want to help build the minds of the future in understanding these subject and you do not put a price on knowledge, is a very noble act.
You are an amazing teacher, you've helped me out a whole lot through the last couple months and I thank you very much.
@FiddyDiddy96, there are 46 chromosomes (2 x 23 : because we are diploids , one we have from mom, the other from dad) , but there's a replication of the mom's chromosome and one of dad's chromosome, so you get 92 chromatides : 2 x 46)
@saritahtams I dont understand it either... it has 2N (46) in interphase before replication... does it then become 4N during interphase (92 chromosomes)??? So it then divides into 2 x 2N (46) during anaphase and telophese?
thank u
