Did You Know?
Cells can make new cells all the time!
What Are Microtubules?
Microtubules are tiny tubes in cells.
What Are Sister Chromatids?
Sister chromatids are like cell twins.
What biorientation Does
It helps cells split into two.
Each new cell gets the same stuff.
It keeps cells healthy and strong.
It helps us grow and heal.
It is very fast and smart.
It works in all living things.
More About biorientation
Biorientation is very old. It has been around for a long time. Cells have used it to grow and split. It helps life on Earth.
We see biorientation in our bodies. It helps us heal when we get hurt. It makes new skin and blood cells.
In the future, we can learn more. Scientists will study it more. They want to help people stay healthy.
