Cell Division
2
Cell Cycle: Chromosome Binary Fission: Homologous Chromosome: Chromatids Centromere Centriole Mitosis Cytokinesis
3
Vocabulary Cell Cycle: life cycle of a cell
Chromosome: Organized structures of DNA during the cell cycle- Humans have 46 chromosomes Binary Fission: Process of cell division in which 1 cell simply splits into 2 (bacteria) Homologous Chromosome: Chromosomes of matching information (pairs of chromosomes)- Humans have 23 homologous chromosomes Chromatids: Identical copies of chromosomes Centromere: Center that holds the chromatids together Centrioles: Structure that assists in cell division Mitosis: Process of nuclear division (2nd part of cell cycle) Cytokinesis: Process of the cytoplasm dividing (3rd part of cell cycle)
4
How does the cell know how to divide?
Cell Division Reproduction Growth Repair Why do cells divide? How does the cell know how to divide? The DNA has the instructions for all of the cell’s activities.
5
Cell Division PROKARYOTIC CELLS Bacteria EUKARYOTIC CELLS
Binary Fission DNA make copies Cell splits in two EUKARYOTIC CELLS Animal, Plant, Protists, Fungi Cell Cycle Three stage, multistep process to duplicate a cell
6
Cell cycle Process in which new eukaryotic cells are formed from old cells Life cycle of a cell
7
Cell cycle Consists of three stages
1. Interphase 2. Mitosis 3. Cytokinesis Results in cells identical to parent cells
8
Cell Cycle 3 Parts The sequence of development and division of a cell
Interphase - Preparation Mitosis – Cell division Cytokinesis – Splitting Adult human cell: ~24 hrs 18-20 hours in interphase 2 hours in mitosis Embryonic cells: 30 min. How long does it take?
9
1. Interphase Cells grow and copy organelles and chromosomes
In-between phase
10
Interphase What happens Cell doubles in size DNA replicates
Organelles double in number
11
2. Mitosis Process of nuclear division in cells
Occurs in eukaryotic cells Four phases (PMAT) Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase
12
PROPHASE (Pair) Nuclear membrane disappears
Chromatids form and pair up Chromosomes are a pair of chromatids held together at the center with a centromere
13
Mitosis: PROPHASE What happens DNA forms chromosomes Spindle forms
Centrioles move toward opposite poles Nuclear membrane begins to disappear
14
Metaphase (Middle) Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
15
Mitosis: METAPHASE What happens Nucleus has disappeared completely
Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell “equator”
16
Anaphase (Apart) Chromatids pull apart
17
Mitosis: ANAPHASE What happens Centromeres divide
Chromatids separate and move to opposite poles
18
Telophase (two) Form two nuclei Nuclear membrane reforms
19
Mitosis: TELOPHASE What happens
Nuclear membrane forms around each group of chromosomes Chromosomes unwind Cytokinesis begins
20
3. Cytokinesis Cytoplasm divides and forms two new cells In plants…
Cell plate forms to split into two Cell plate becomes the new membrane/wall In Animals… Pinch apart to make two cells
21
Cytokinesis Cytoplasm divides One cell becomes 2 cells What happens
