What is consciousness

It’s being in a state of awareness, but if you’re talking about from a sense neurology I’m going to be honest I don’t know
Okay, here it goes:
In mitotic cell division, why does the duplication of the amount of genetic material in chromosomes NOT mean doubling the number of chromosomes?
Been trying to figure it out for two weeks now, any ideas?

I mean, you don’t have to brag about it. Some of us might not.
I do science but I don't believe in science
Has evolution been proven yet? My teacher at my new school teaches it like it’s a definite fact and marks us wrong if we say otherwise.
I am not bragging

Well, the DNA is the genetic material which is doubled then compressed down into chromatin and then chromosomes so yes, the chromosomes are being doubled.
I think Evolution is a fact, and a theory

You really believe that?

Okay I'm confused. Our science book says in Interphase, it doubles the amount but not the number.

The amount would be the number so therefore the number of chromosomes in the mother cell is doubled. I would recommend asking your teacher if you’re still confused.

So?
My brain is very confused about the BigBang Theory

what do u want me to explain? What part of it?

Basically a hell lot of forces occurred at one spot and caused a Big Bang which caused a supernova
How the big bang begun? If energy isn't created, just transformated how it begun? And the matery, how it was created?
Just one word: Cells

That is what Im learning Smile
Science = Kaboom?
