Mitosis Cell Division
First, Let’s Review ….
Cell Reproduction Let’s Review – All cells are derived from pre-existing cells New cells are produced for growth and to replace damaged or old cells
Types of Cell Reproduction Asexual Reproduction - a single cell divides to make 2 new identical cells Eg. Mitosis Sexual Reproduction - two cells (egg & sperm) that are NOT identical to the original cells unite to form a zygote Eg. Meiosis
How does DNA make more DNA? DNA Replication How does DNA make more DNA?
Two new, identical DNA strands DNA Replication DNA must be copied or replicated before cell division Each new cell will then have an identical copy of the DNA Original DNA strand Two new, identical DNA strands
The Cell Cycle
Cells prepare for Division Cell Divides into Identical cells Cell Cycle DNA Copied Cells prepare for Division Cells Mature Daughter Cells Cell Divides into Identical cells
Two identical copies of DNA Interphase Cell carries on its normal activities Makes more cytoplasm & organelles DNA is copied (“replicated”) All cell structures needed for division are made (e.g. centrioles) Original DNA Two identical copies of DNA
Mitosis
Mitosis has 4 Stages 1. Prophase 2. Metaphase 3. Anaphase 4. Telophase
Vocabulary Chromosomes – threads of genetic material Chromatids – a copied chromosome Centromere – “belt” that holds chromatids together Spindle fiber – “string” that attaches to chromosome Centrioles – produces the spindle fiber Nuclear membrane – envelope around the nucleus
Chromosomes in Dividing Cells Duplicated chromosomes are called chromatids & are held together by the centromere Called Sister Chromatids
Prophase
Prophase Spindle fibers forms from centrioles Nuclear membrane is broken down Spindle fibers attach to the centromere of each chromosome
Spindle Fiber attached to Chromosome
Metaphase
Metaphase Chromosomes move to the center of the cell Chromosomes are now lined up at the equator (Middle = Metaphse) Equator of Cell Pole of the Cell
Metaphase Spindle Fibers Chromosomes lined at the Equator
Chromosomes at Equator Metaphase Chromosomes at Equator
Anaphase
Anaphase Sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles of the cell by spindle fibers
Sister Chromatids being separated Anaphase Sister Chromatids being separated
Telophase
Telophase Sister chromatids at opposite poles Spindle disassembles Nuclear envelope forms around each set of sister chromatids CYTOKINESIS occurs
Cytokinesis Means division of the cytoplasm Division of cell into two, identical halves called daughter cells
Cleavage furrow in animal cell Cell plate in plant cell Cytokinesis Cleavage furrow in animal cell Cell plate in plant cell
Daughter Cells of Mitosis Have the same number of chromosomes as each other and as the parent cell from which they were formed
Identical Daughter Cells Chromosome number the same, but cells smaller than parent cell

P.M.A.T Key Words Prophase – Plug together Metaphase – Middle Anaphase – Away Telophase - Terminated
