    Study Notes

    Cell Division Functions

    • Cell division enables growth, repair, and maintenance of tissues and organs in an organism.
    • It allows for the reproduction of an organism, as it produces gametes (sperm and egg cells).
    • Cell division also enables the replacement of damaged or dead cells.

    Cell Cycle

    • DNA condenses to form separate chromosomes during the prophase stage of the cell cycle.

    Active Transport

    • The primary function of active transport in a cell is to move molecules from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration, requiring energy input.

    Cell Division Structures

    • Centrioles aid in cell division by pulling chromatids apart into each side of the cell.
