1
Mitosis/Meiosis How do your cells divide?
2
A few words before we start….. Haploid: Diploid:
3
A Cell’s Life
4
Why Do Cells Divide? Surface area Damaged cells Sex cells
5
Cell Reproduction is either sexual or asexual
6
Asexual Reproduction (one parent) Binary Fission- Budding Vegetative Propagation Regeneration
7
Advantages of Asexual Reproduction Speed Desirable Characteristics Replacement
8
DNA Replication Before a cell can divide the DNA must replicate (make a copy of itself)
9
DNA Replication Making a new strand of DNA is actually quite easy. Replication occurs in 3 easy steps…
10
1. DNA Unzips An enzyme unzips the molecule The enzymes breaks the hydrogen bonds that hold the nitrogen bases together.

3. DNA Zips Up An enzyme zips the new molecules back up.

DNA Replication Voila! Two identical strands of DNA! T C C A G G T C C A G G T C C A G G
27
DNA Replication Review Step 1 Step 2 Step 3
28
Remember - All this takes place in INTERPHASE G2G2
29
Now that DNA has replicated, we are ready to begin Mitosis (nucleus of the cell divides) T C C A G G T C C A G G
30
Parent Cell DNA condenses into chromosomes Chromosomes align on the equator Chromosomes separate DNA uncoils
31
Cytokinesis Cleavage (indention in cell membrane) or cell plate formation occurs. Cell divides. Animal Cell Plant Cell
32
Mitosis Animation
33
It’s all about the chromosomes! –There are 46 in human body cells –The number of chromosomes remain constant during Mitosis
34
Which Cells Go Through Mitosis? Growth Repair Work Cells which help the body in:
35
Mitosis Review 1. Is the beginning parent cell diploid or haploid (2n or n)? 2. Are the daughter cells diploid or haploid (2n or n)?
36
More Mitosis Review 3. How many daughter cells are produced? 4. Are the resulting daughter cells different from the parent cell?
37
More Mitosis Review 5. Are the resulting daughter cells different from each other? 6. How many chromosomes are in a human parent cell? 7. How many chromosomes are in a human daughter cell?
38
More Mitosis Review 8.What types of cells are produced by mitosis? 9. Why (when) does a cell go through mitosis?
39
Meiosis Sexual Reproduction (two parents)
40
Why Meiosis? Meiosis -
42
How does Meiosis Occur?
43
Crossing Over What is happening? How does this affect the individual (offspring)?
44
Crossing Over
45
Meiosis Review Is the beginning parent cell diploid or haploid (2n or n)? 2. Are the resulting daughter cells diploid or haploid (2n or n)?
46
More Meiosis Review 3. How many daughter cells are produced? Are the resulting daughter cells different from the parent cell?
47
More Meiosis Review 5. Are the resulting daughter cells different from each other? 7. How many chromosomes are in a human daughter cell? 6. How many chromosomes are in a human parent cell?
48
More Meiosis Review 8. What types of cells are produced by meiosis?
49
Fertilization New Individual 46 Mom 23 Dad 23
50
This is how new organisms are made!!
51
Let’s review Mitosis & Meiosis
53
Mitosis vs. Meiosis EventMitosisMeiosis Produces 4 cells Produces 2 cells New cells identical New cells different New cells have the same number of chromosomes as parent New cells have fewer chromosomes than parent √ √ √ √ √ √
54
Mitosis vs. Meiosis EventMitosisMeiosis Beginning cells diploid (2n) Beginning cells haploid (n) Ending cells diploid (2n) Ending cells haploid (n) Produces egg and sperm Produces body cells √ √ √ √ √ √
