1. 5.1 The Cell Cycle KEY CONCEPT Cells have distinct phases of growth, reproduction, and normal functions.

4. 5.1 The Cell Cycle A. Interphase-cell growth Gap1 (G1)-rapid protein synthesis, lots of enzyme activity, organelles replicate (copy) Synthesis (S)-chromosomes become visible, replicate and are now called sister chromatids connected by the centromeres. Gap 2 (G2)-more metabolic activity, centrioles duplicate and form spindle fibers made of microtubules.

5. 5.1 The Cell Cycle The main stages of the cell cycle are gap 1, synthesis, gap 2, and mitosis. –1.Gap 1 (G 1 ):2. cell growth and normal functions –3.DNA synthesis (S): 4.copies DNA –5.Gap 2 (G 2 ): 6.additional growth 8. cell/nuclear division –7. Mitotic Phase: includes division of the cell nucleus (mitosis) and division of the cell cytoplasm 13.cytokinesis 14. Mitosis 15. Cell cycle

6. 5.1 The Cell Cycle Cells divide at different rates G1-varies the greatest G0 – this cell is unlikely to divide again

7. 5.1 The Cell Cycle 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 (G 0 ).

8. 5.1 The Cell Cycle Cell size is limited If cell is too small the cell does not contain all the organelles it needs. If a cell is too large-needed nutrients could not diffuse in and waste could not diffuse out. (starve or poison itself)

9. 5.1 The Cell Cycle Cell size is limited. Volume increases faster than surface area.

10. 5.1 The Cell Cycle Surface area must allow for adequate exchange of materials. –Cell growth is coordinated with division. –Cells that must be large have unique shapes.
