In clip 12 the whole sequence of the division cycle is broken down into a series of stages.  Each of the stages has been given a name and each is characterised by particular events.

Clip 13 shows a demonstration of the experimental methodology used to perform a crucial experiment which proves that DNA is the fundamental genetic material.  Dr. Cox demonstrates this by adding genetic material (DNA) from one strain of bacterium to another, so that a genetically determined characteristic of the former is transferred to the latter.
