2. Occurs in the nucleus of a cell Occurs in the nucleus of a cell The cell must make a copy/replicatation of its DNA -genetic code (part of a chromosome) The cell must make a copy/replicatation of its DNA -genetic code (part of a chromosome) Chromosome: an organized structure of DNA. Chromosome: an organized structure of DNA. Humans have 46 chromosomes(23pairs) 1 is the Sex Chromosome (boy/girl) Humans have 46 chromosomes(23pairs) 1 is the Sex Chromosome (boy/girl)

3. Mitosis: -A process of asexual reproduction (1parent) -A process of asexual reproduction (1parent) # of divisions=1 # of divisions=1 # of cells produced=2 (exact copies) # of cells produced=2 (exact copies) Makes internal organs, skin, bones, blood, etc. Makes internal organs, skin, bones, blood, etc.

4. Meiosis: -A process of sexual reproduction (2 parents) -A process of sexual reproduction (2 parents) # of divisions=2 # of divisions=2 # of cells produced=4 (parts of each parent) # of cells produced=4 (parts of each parent) Results in reproductive cells (sperm, eggs, etc). Results in reproductive cells (sperm, eggs, etc).

5. Mitosis: Meiosis: Each resulting cell still has chromosomes from mom & dad

6. Mutations “Mistakes” in cells “Mistakes” in cells Caused by Caused by -problems in cell copies of DNA in cell division -problems in cell copies of DNA in cell division -DNA damage from UV light, radiation, or other chemicals. -DNA damage from UV light, radiation, or other chemicals. Can be passed on through the parent cell. Can be passed on through the parent cell. Clyde Freeman Herreid – Dept. of Biological Sciences: Buffalo State Univ. of New York

8. Interphase: -occurs just before Mitosis begins -DNA is replicated along with organelles and other cellular components and the cell prepares for division. http://www.bioweb.uncc.edu/1110Lab/notes/notes1/lab6.htm

10. Prophase (preparation phase) Prophase (preparation phase) http://www.bioweb.uncc.edu/1110Lab/notes/notes1/lab6.htm -1 st step in Mitosis -The DNA recoils, and the chromosomes condense; the nuclear membrane disappears, and the mitotic spindles begin to form.

12. Metaphase (organizational phase) -2 nd step in Mitosis -2 nd step in Mitosis - The chromosomes line up the middle of the cell with the help of spindle fibers attached to the centromere of each replicated chromosome. http://www.bioweb.uncc.edu/1110Lab/notes/notes1/lab6.htm

14. Anaphase (separation phase) Anaphase (separation phase) -3 rd Step in Mitosis -The chromosomes split in the middle and the sister chromatids are pulled by the spindle fibers to opposite poles of the cell. http://www.bioweb.uncc.edu/1110Lab/notes/notes1/lab6.htm

16. Telophase Telophase -4 th Step in Mitosis -The chromosomes, along with the cytoplasm and its organelles and membranes are divided into 2 portions. This diagram shows the end of telophase. http://www.bioweb.uncc.edu/1110Lab/notes/notes1/lab6.htm

18. Cytokinesis Cytokinesis -After Mitosis -The actual splitting of the daughter cells into two separate cells -occurs differently in both plant and animal Cells. Beginning of cytokinesis in a plant: Beginning of cytokinesis in an animal: http://www.bioweb.uncc.edu/1110Lab/notes/notes1/lab6.htm

21. Meiosis Interphase Meiosis Interphase Meiosis is preceded by interphase. The chromosomes have not yet condensed. http://morgan.rutgers.edu/MorganWebFrames/Level1/Page7/meiosis1.html

22. Meiosis Interphase The chromosomes have replicated, and the chromatin begins to condense. http://morgan.rutgers.edu/MorganWebFrames/Level1/Page7/meiosis1.html

23. Meiosis Prophase I The chromosomes are completely condensed. In meiosis (unlike mitosis), the homologous chromosomes pair with one another http://morgan.rutgers.edu/MorganWebFrames/Level1/Page7/meiosis1.html

24. Meiosis Metaphase I The nuclear membrane dissolves and the homologous chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers. They are preparing to go to opposite poles. The nuclear membrane dissolves and the homologous chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers. They are preparing to go to opposite poles. http://morgan.rutgers.edu/MorganWebFrames/Level1/Page7/meiosis1.html

25. Meiosis Anaphase I The chromosomes move to opposite ends of the cell. http://morgan.rutgers.edu/MorganWebFrames/Level1/Page7/meiosis1.html

26. Meiosis Telophase I & Cytokinesis The cell begins to divide into two daughter cells. It is important to understand that each daughter cell can get any combination of maternal and paternal chromosomes. http://morgan.rutgers.edu/MorganWebFrames/Level1/Page7/meiosis1.html

27. Meiosis Prophase II The cell has divided into two daughter cells. http://morgan.rutgers.edu/MorganWebFrames/Level1/Page7/meiosis1.html

28. Meiosis Metaphase II As in Meiosis I, the chromosomes line up on the spindle fibers. http://morgan.rutgers.edu/MorganWebFrames/Level1/Page7/meiosis1.html

29. Meiosis Anaphase II The two cells each begin to divide. As in Meiosis I, the chromosomes move to opposite ends of each cell. http://morgan.rutgers.edu/MorganWebFrames/Level1/Page7/meiosis1.html

30. Telophase II & Cytokinesis With the formation of four cells, meiosis is over. Each of these prospective germ cells carries half the number of chromosomes of somatic cells. http://morgan.rutgers.edu/MorganWebFrames/Level1/Page7/meiosis1.html
