Life of a Cell The Cell Cycle
The Cell Cycle Consists of: Interphase Mitosis Cytokinesis
Interphase NOT a “resting” phase for the cell. The cell carries out metabolic processes and prepares for cell division during interphase. G1: Cell growth S: DNA is replicated (46 chromosomes in humans) G2: Cell growth
Interphase (Plant)
Interphase (Animal) Cell membrane Nuclear membrane
Mitosis Process that divides the nucleus of a cell Purpose is to create two daughter cells with identical information Exact same # and type of chromosomes Consists of 4 phases: Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase
Prophase Illustration In prophase: Nuclear membrane disintegrates (disappears) Chromatin coils/condenses into chromosomes and becomes visible Chromosomes consist of 2 chromatids Centrosomes migrate to opposite sides of cell; spindle fibers form and attach to chromosomes Centrosomes
Prophase (Plant) Chromatin is condensing into chromosomes
Prophase (Animal) Chromosomes
Metaphase Illustration Centromere *Chromosomes still consist of two chromatids
Metaphase (Plant)
Metaphase (Animal)
Anaphase Illustration In Anaphase: Chromatids separate at the centromere, becoming individual chromosomes Chromosome now = 1 chromatid Spindle fibers shorten, pulling chromatids to opposite poles of cell Centriole Spindle Fibers Chromatid
Anaphase (Plant) Chromatids
Anaphase (Animal)
Telophase Illustration In telophase: Nuclear membrane forms again Chromosomes uncoil into long strands of chromatin Cytokinesis begins
Telophase (Plant) Nuclear membrane forming
Telophase (Animal) Nucleus
Cytokinesis Illustration In cytokinesis: The cytoplasm divides between the daughter cells Happens by cleavage furrow (animal) or formation of cell plate (plant) Produces 2 daughter cells Cleavage furrow
Cytokinesis (Plant)
Cytokinesis (Animal) Cleavage Furrow
