1
The Cell Cycle Interphase, Mitosis, and Cytokinesis 10-2
2
Learning Goals 1. Summarize the cell cycle and what it results in. 2. Describe the function of the cell cycle in both a unicellular and multicellular organism. 3. Define chromosome and describe its parts. 4. Describe what happens to the chromosomes in each of the 6 steps of the cell cycle.
3
Cell Cycle Cell Cycle - cell division that results in 2 new daughter cells that are an exact copy of the original (parent) cell.
4
The Cell Cycle Three Main Stages: a) Interphase (95%) b) Mitosis (5%) c) Cytokinesis M Phase M phase = cell division
5
Function Unicellular organisms reproduce this way (asexual reproduction) Multicellular organisms make new cells this way Causes organisms to grow To replace old worn out cells Repair damaged cells
6
Chromosomes Carry genetic information DNA = genetic code Every organism has a different # of chromosomes ex: humans have 46 (23 from mom & 23 from dad)
7
One chromosome = pair of sister chromatids Sister Chromatid = 1 copy of wound up DNA centromere Sister chromatids are held together by a centromere centromere Sister chromatid
9
Interphase occurs before mitosis begins Chromosomes, cytoplasm, and organelles are copied. The cell grows
10
Mitosis
11
Prophase 1st step in Mitosis The genetic material (DNA) condenses into bundles called chromosomes.
12
Nuclear membrane disappears Spindle fibers form Centrioles move to opposite sides of the cell
13
Metaphase 2 nd step in Mitosis The chromosomes line up along the middle of the cell
14
Spindle fibers attach to the centromeres of chromosomes
15
4.Anaphase 3 rd step in Mitosis Sister chromatids separate and move to opposite sides of the cell
17
Telophase 4 th step in Mitosis Nuclear membrane forms around each set of chromosomes
18
Chromosomes unwind into chromatin Spindle fibers disappear
19
Now you try! Identify the 4 steps of mitosis on the next slide ( Hint: They are not in order)
20
Metaphase Telophase Anaphase Prophase
21
Cytokinesis occurs after mitosis The cytoplasm splits in two Result is two identical cells that have the same number of chromosomes as the original cell.
24
REMEMBER! I Interphase P Prophase M Metaphase A Anaphase T Telophase C Cytokinesis IPMATC I Pray M ore At T he Church
