1. The Adventures of Kevin and Rex in Cell Division By Paulina De La Fuente & Kalli Hanson
2. Today is a very special day for Kevin because he finally gets to go through the cell cycle . But not just anyone can go through the cell cycle. You can only participate when your type of cell is "ready". Kevin was a skin cell, so he got to divide quicker than a brain cell or heart cell. YAY!!
3. Dividing was such a big deal to the community, that they were congratulating him all day! Thank you! Congrats! Woohoo! Finally! Aw, you’re all grown up now!
4. As Kevin strolled over to the factory, he ran into his old friend Rex. Hey! Rex! Over here! It’s me: your old pal!! Oh. Hi Kevin.
5. But little did Kevin know that Rex was jealous of him because Rex had to wait longer to divide, being a brain cell and all. I can’t believe you finally get to divide! You’re awesome!! Urg!! I wish I could divide too!
6. While they walked over to the cell-dividing factory together, Rex began to plot how to shut down the factory so that no other cells would have the chance to divide. I can’t believe I finally get to divide….bla bla bla…. ……and that way no one else will be able to divide!!! Cell Dividing Factory
7. Finally, after a long walk, they got to the factory. Hey buddy! I’m gonna wait for you out here. Alrighty!
8. So Kevin went inside the factory, and started to divide.
9. So Kevin went inside the factory, and started to divide.
10. In Prophase , the first stage in cell division, the nucleus starts to disappear. Also, the chromatin coils to form visible chromosomes.
11. But as Kevin was dividing in the factory, Rex started to figure out ideas to shut down the factory so that no other cells could divide.
12. Kevin, meanwhile, was in the next stage called Metaphase . Which is where the chromosomes move to the equator of the spindle .
13.
14. But that did not work because there were policemen in the front of the building who wouldn’t let him in. Nevermind P P
15. In the meantime, Kevin was inside in the stage: Anaphase , which is when the centromeres split and the sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles of the cell.
16.
17. Rex sneaked in the back way, not knowing that there were 3 guards waiting behind the door.
26. Kevin had finally gotten to the final stage of the cell cycle: Telophase. Here, the two distinct daughter cells are formed. The cells seperate as the cell cycle proceeds into the next interphase called cytokinesis .
27. Hey! You! Come with us! Why? Because! You tried to shut down the factory TWICE!...you’re going to jail. P P
