Ring-tailed lemurs are the most easily recognisable of all the lemur species, they're the only ones to have a long, bushy and black-and-white striped tail. ", "Ring-tailed lemurs are endangered. The gallery forests of Madagascar that these lemurs prefer are rapidly being converted to farmland, overgrazed by livestock, and harvested for charcoal production. They are also hunted for food in certain areas of their range and are frequently kept as pets. One of the most unusual lemur activities that ring-tailed lemurs participate in is sunbathing. The ring-tailed mob will gather in open areas of the forest and sit in what some call a yoga position facing the sun. They sit with their bellies toward the sun and their arms and legs stretched out to the sides.", "Lemur catta, also known as the ring-tailed lemur, is a primate native to Madagascar. “Lemur” comes from the Latin word lemurs, meaning “ghosts”. It is called “ring-tailed” because of its distinctive alternating black and white bands along the tail. Due to the clearing of trees and the destruction of their habitat, ring-tailed lemurs are an endangered species. There are many conservation efforts in progress, such as by the Lemur Conservation Foundation and the Madagascar Fauna Group.", "The ring-tailed lemur (Lemur catta) is a large strepsirrhine primate and the most recognized lemur due to its long, black and white ringed tail. It belongs to Lemuridae, one of five lemur families, and is the only member of the Lemur genus. Like all lemurs it is endemic to the island of Madagascar. The ring-tailed lemur is a relatively large lemur. Its average weight is 2.2 kilograms (4.9 lb). Its head–body length ranges between 39 and 46 cm (15 and 18 in), its tail length is 56 and 63 cm (22 and 25 in), and its total length is 95 and 110 cm (37 and 43 in)." ], "url": [ "http://nationalzoo.si.edu/animals/primates/facts/fact-ring-tailed-lemur.cfm", "http://www.arkive.org/ring-tailed-lemur/lemur-catta/", "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring-tailed_Lemur", "http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/mammals/ring-tailed-lemur/", "http://www.animalfactguide.com/animal-facts/ring-tailed-lemur/", "http://www.bbc.co.uk/nature/life/Ring-tailed_Lemur", "http://nationalzoo.si.edu/animals/primates/facts/fact-ring-tailed-lemur.cfm", "http://tolweb.org/treehouses/?treehouse_id=4730", "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring-tailed_Lemur" ] }

During nuclear division, the chromosomes line up at the cell's equator and then the sister chromatids separate and move to opposite ends of the cell (poles). Once separated these former sister chromatids are now each considered a chromosome. Once the chromosomes move to opposite poles, the dividing cell reforms a nuclear membrane around each of the two areas of separated genetic material.

A single replicated chromosome has two sister chromatids. One chromatid is shown in yellow, the other in blue. The two chromatids contain exactly identical chains of double-stranded DNA, as well as a protein support structure composed of mostly of histones. Histones are proteins present in all eukaryotic cells.", "During cell division, the identical copies (called a sister chromatid pair ) are joined at the region called the centromere (2).
