I. Why do Cells Divide?
11
www.free-ppt-templates.com – The larger a cell becomes, the more demands on its DNA – Better organization – Needs to move nutrients and wastes across the cell membrane quickly – If too big, cannot get nutrients fast enough
12
www.free-ppt-templates.com DNA is the cell’s “library” of information. DNA is the cell’s “library” of information. Imagine a very large city using one local library for all materials Imagine a very large city using one local library for all materials
13
www.free-ppt-templates.com A big bag is weaker, harder to find things Large cell, difficult to maneuver organelles
14
www.free-ppt-templates.com More volume = bigger need The larger the volume of the balloon, the weaker it is. The balloon skin stays the same.
15
www.free-ppt-templates.com B. What is Surface area? The total area of the surface The total area of the surface of a 3D object of a 3D object B. What is Surface area? The total area of the surface The total area of the surface of a 3D object of a 3D object *Large surface area SPEEDS UP the movement of materials* What is the surface area of this cube? 24 cm 2 2 cm
16
www.free-ppt-templates.com C. What is Volume? The amount of 3-D space that an object occupies, “capacity” *Large volume SLOWS down movement of materials* What is the VOLUME of the shape here? 200 cm 3 cm
17
www.free-ppt-templates.com As the length of cell increases, volume increases faster surface area (cm 3 compared to cm 2 ) HIGH ratio desired: quick movement of materials Ex: 6000/1 is better than 2/1 As the length of cell increases, volume increases faster surface area (cm 3 compared to cm 2 ) HIGH ratio desired: quick movement of materials Ex: 6000/1 is better than 2/1
18
www.free-ppt-templates.com It’s better to have lots of small cells instead of fewer instead of fewer large cells!
19
www.free-ppt-templates.com A. All genes located in DNA in nucleus of eukaryotic cell B. Chromosomes are condensed forms of DNA
20
www.free-ppt-templates.com C.Chromosome number is unique to every species Humans: 46 chr. Chimpanzees: 48 chr. Yeast: 32 chr. Adders-Tongue Fern: 1440 chr.!
21
www.free-ppt-templates.com How is DNA Packaged? How is DNA Packaged? Chromosome- when chromatin coils for Chromosome- when chromatin coils for Mitosis Mitosis

B. Chromosome # stays the same (Cells growths, doubles chromosomes, then splits, forming two daughter cells with original # of chromosomes) 46 chromosomes 46 chr A.

A.Interphase: “I-ball” 90% of the time! Gap 0 “resting phase”, cell is not growing Gap 1 cell grows, doubles organelles Synthesis duplication of the DNA in the cell's chromosomes Gap 2 cell grows, microtubules assembled
30
www.free-ppt-templates.com Prophase- “pasta” Chromatin fibers condense Nuclear membrane breaks down Spindle of microtubules forms from centrioles [animals only] Attach to chromatids on centromere
31
www.free-ppt-templates.com Metaphase- “middle” Chromosomes line up in the middle Spindle fibers attach centrioles to centromeres Every sister chromatid has fiber attached to it Centriole Spindle
32
www.free-ppt-templates.com Anaphase: “away phase”, form “A’s” Spindle fibers contract Pull sister chromatids apart The chromosomes continue to move until they are in two groups Each side has own copy of DNA Individualchromosomes
33
www.free-ppt-templates.com Telophase- “end phase” Nuclear membranes reform at each pole Chromosomes unwind Spindle disappears
34
www.free-ppt-templates.com C. CYTOKINESIS During cytokinesis, the cytoplasm cuts in half
35
www.free-ppt-templates.com A structure known as the CELL PLATE forms midway between the divided nuclei.
36
www.free-ppt-templates.com Animal cells contract across middle of cell and “pinch” making a “cleavage furrow”.

41
www.free-ppt-templates.com A. Spindle: network of microtubules that move chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis B. Equator: center line of cell where chromosomes line up during metaphase C. Poles: the opposite ends of cell D. Centrioles: animal cells only, move the spindle and chromosomes during division
42
www.free-ppt-templates.com E. Centromere: region where two sister chromatids are joined tightly together
43
www.free-ppt-templates.com A. Production of 2 new daughter cells B. Daughter cells are exactly the same as original parent cell C. Cell --> Tissue --> Organ --> Organ System --> Organism D. This is how organisms grow & develop!
