1
Cell Cycle (Cell Division)
2
The student is expected to: 5A describe the stages of the cell cycle, including deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) replication and mitosis, and the importance of the cell cycle to the growth of organisms
3
Write these questions and answer them.
Where are chromosomes found? How many chromosomes or pairs of chromosomes do we have in each of our cells? How do we make new human organisms? How many chromosomes do sperm cells have? How about egg cells? When a sperm fertilizes an egg, how many chromosomes are present? How many cells are present? How does the fertilized egg become a baby?
4
Why do cells divide? Increased volume increased demand
Volume exponential growth Surface area doubles Lack of surface area triggers cell division
5
Developing multicellular Organism.
6
KEY CONCEPT Cells divide during mitosis and cytokinesis.
13
cells divide at different rates.
The rate of cell division varies with the need for those types of cells. Some cells are unlikely to divide (G0).
14
Rates of Cell Division Rapid Rarely Skin Digestive tract Bone marrow
Replace worn out or broken down cells Rarely Muscle Nerve (slowest) Stay in G0 phase
15
Cell growth is coordinated with division.
Surface area must allow for adequate exchange of materials. Cell growth is coordinated with division. Cells that must be large have unique shapes.
16
Cell Cycle has 3 main functions
17
1. Growth
18
2. Replacement and 3. Repair
19
Cell Cycle G1 – Growth 1 S - Synthesis G2 - Growth 2 Prophase
Interphase (preparation for cell division) G1 – Growth 1 S - Synthesis G2 - Growth 2 Mitosis (Division of the nucleus) Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Cytokenesis (Division of the cytoplasm)
21
Interphase 75% of cell’s life spent here Includes G1, S, and G2
Centrioles 75% of cell’s life spent here Includes G1, S, and G2 Nucleolus
22
Interphase G1 – Growth 1 Cell doubles in size
Some organelles (ribosomes & mitochondria) double in number. Cells that don’t duplicate, stay at this phase Go
23
Interphase S – Synthesis (to make)
DNA Replication DNA makes a copy of itself so that each “new” cell has a complete set.
26
Interphase G2 – Growth 2 Spindle fiber are assembled.
The rest of the needed organelles are produced. The cell is now ready to divide!!!
27
Before we go into Mitosis, we are going to talk about the S sub-phase and exactly what happens there! DNA Replication
28
DNA Replication So that identical copies of the cell’s genes, can be passed on to each new cell. DNA Replication occurs during the S sub-phase of Interphase.
29
Chromosome Centromere- hold copies together
When referring to individual sides, they are called sister chromatids. Chromosome Chromosome Double Copies Has gone through DNA Replication – so that each cell gets a complete set of 46. Chromosome Single Copy Centromere- hold copies together
30
Which of these is ready to go through cell division?
31
Chromosomes condense at the start of mitosis.
DNA wraps around proteins (histones) that condense it. DNA double helix DNA and histones Chromatin Supercoiled DNA
32
Mitosis – Division of the nucleus (DNA)
Remember: During Interphase the S sub-phase, we made a copy of DNA and in Mitosis we are separating those copies.
33
occurred but chromosomes
Review: Interphase Chromatin DNA Replication has occurred but chromosomes are uncoiled
34
1. Nuclear Envelope begins
Mitosis – Prophase 1. Nuclear Envelope begins to break down 2.Chromosomes coil up & condense 4.Spindle Fibers are put together 3.Centrioles migrate to opposite poles
35
Mitosis – Metaphase 1.Chromosomes line up at the equator 2.Centrioles
at opposite poles 3. Spindle Fibers attach to chromosomes at the kinetochore
36
Anaphase Centromeres split Chromatids pulled apart
now called chromosomes
37
Mitosis – Anaphase(cytokenesis begins here)
2.Spindle Fibers pull Sister Chromatids apart to opposite poles 1.Plasma membrane elongates 3.Sister Chromatids are now chromosomes of the new cell forming Anaphase is Critical to chromosomal distribution
38
3rd Phase of Cell Cycle Cytokenesis
Cytokenesis begins with Anaphase and continues to finish with Telophase. Cytokenesis is the division of the cytoplasm ( organelles and cytosol) It is not an even distribution thus the 2 daughter cells at the end are not completely identical.
39
Mitosis – Telophase 2 5 1 3 4
40
Telophase is the opposite of Prophase
1. Nuclear Envelope is reformed. 2. Chromosomes uncoil forming Chromatin. 3. Only 1 centriole left – the other will be made in Interphase. 4. Spindle Fibers are dissolved. 5. Cleavage Furrow continues to pinch until the cell is divided to form 2 daughter cells with identical DNA.
41
In animal cells, the membrane pinches closed.
Cytokinesis differs in animal and plant cells. In animal cells, the membrane pinches closed. In plant cells, a cell plate forms.
43
Controlling Cell Growth
Stop when touching Can resume when space (injury) Contact inhibition Stop when cannot absorb enough nutrients Uncontrolled growth: cancer
