What to do after the test on Wednesday?

1. After test, pick up book and go to pp 51-54.  Then in notes:
2. What is the role of mitosis?   
3. What happens during interphase?  And what are the 3 phases?  (look at Figure 2 on p 52).  
4. Describe the supercoiling of chromosomes   
5. Describe the events of the 4 stages of mitosis
