I love when you hear him nerding out getting all excited explaining why something is important.

what I learned from this video:
chromosomes are not magenta colored
centrosomes are not to be confused with centromeres

[natashavernon]

You should have a podcast ! Thank you so much . You have no idea how many students around the world that are blessed because of you .

[Becca_Lynn]

These videos are SO incredibly helpful! Short, to the point, and very well explained. Thank you! :)

[reneelewis]

Thank you so much for explaining this. I spent almost all day trying to figure out the roles of the centrosomes, microtubules, and centromeres were!! It's hard to visualize what books are trying to describe. I am more of a visual learner, so this helped so much!!!

[bethford]

Amazing video thank you :)
If anyone is in the UK studying A-Level Biology you also need to know that animal cells cleve from the outside in, and plant cells cleve from the inside out, laying down platelets of cellulose. It was a question that came up on a paper a few years ago and caught people by supprise!

Taking a science test tommrow and this really helped me as well as all the other videos khan academy has to offer? I use their videos mostly for my algebra 1. You guys are the best keep it up. (Inspiring nerds like me everywhere)😂

[rossie_]

Just a tip to differentiate between centromere and centrosome
centroMere - middle (MIDDLE of sister chromatids & cell)
centroSome- Side (sides of sister chromatids & cell).

I hope this helps.

when people they put out this long presentations with so much info in them, they are hard to follow. they are all so worried about sounding academical and the message gets lost. but not with you. you are awesome.

the swallowing makes me want to scream... HOWEVER your videos have helped me ALOT - Thanks a Bunch!

[emilydyos]

These videos make complex concepts so much easier to understand. Thank you so, so much! I can't believe how much I enjoy watching them. I choose them over my lectures any day! This is HEAVEN to the visual learner, which is the best way I learn!

[noahmahler]

this guy knows how to explain stuff, i have never understood this. Now after just one video I get it

[eztosay]

Interphase
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
Cytokinesis

[rahimashaikh]

This helped me so much . Thank you so much . I finally understand .

[miss-sunshine]

This is crazy wow god created us perfectly subhana Allah 🤌🏻🤌🏻and thank you, you explained this lesson briefly, in an perfect and enjoyable way 🤍

[AnnoyedAtEverything]

Much more helpful than just reading the slides my prof provided. Thank you!!

[RachelNicole]

Thank you so much for these helpful videos! I'm a visual learner and I couldn't get through college without YouTube! Only thing, with this video, you didn't mention the Prometaphase stage, which I need to know for class...there are 5 stages to mitosis, not four. Still a helpful video.
