The Basis of Cellular Inheritance Chapter 9
2
Vocabulary Clarification
3
Human Karyotype HOMOLOGOUS CHROMOSOMES: carry the same genetic info, one copy is from Mom and one copy is from Dad XX = Female XY = Male
4
Diploid vs. Haploid Diploid cells (2n) have 2 sets of chromosomes (somatic cells- almost all cells in the body) Haploid cells (n) have one set of chromosomes (gametes or sex cells)
5
The Cell Cycle
6
INTERPHASE Plant Cell
7
Phases of Mitosis: PROPHASE Plant Cell
8
Phases of Mitosis: METAPHASE Plant Cell
9
Phases of Mitosis: ANAPHASE Plant Cell
10
Phases of Mitosis: TELOPHASE Plant Cell Cell Plate
11
Regulating The Cell Cycle Cells complete the cell cycle at different paces; some cells don’t divide (ex: neurons, cardiac muscle) Special proteins direct the sequence of events and serve as “checkpoints” When this “control system” malfunctions, cells reproduce at the wrong time and place leading to tumors
12
Tumors and Cancer Benign Tumors (not cancer) A mass of normal cells Malignant Tumors Masses of cancer cells Cancer cells displace normal tissue, enter blood vessels, and can metastasize, or spread from their site of origin Combating cancer requires a deep understanding of the cell cycle
13
Cancer Treatment SURGERY Remove tumor from tissue RADIATION Expose dividing tumor cells to high-energy radiation to disrupt division CHEMOTHERAPY Use antimitotic drugs to prevent spindle formation or function SIDE EFFECTS Damage reproductive cell development (sterility) Damage intestinal cells (nausea) Damage hair follicle cells (hair loss)
14
Asexual vs. Sexual Reproduction ASEXUAL Offspring inherit all their genetic information from ONE parent (genetic clones) Mitosis SEXUAL Genetic information from two parents combines to make offspring (genetically unique offspring) Meiosis
15
Mitosis vs. Meiosis
16
MITOSISMEIOSIS
17
MITOSISMEIOSIS Growth, repair, asexual reproduction
18
MITOSISMEIOSIS Growth, repair, asexual reproduction Formation of gametes, sexual reproduction
19
MITOSISMEIOSIS Growth, repair, asexual reproduction Formation of gametes, sexual reproduction 2 daughter cells genetically identical to parent
20
MITOSISMEIOSIS Growth, repair, asexual reproduction Formation of gametes, sexual reproduction 2 daughter cells genetically identical to parent 4 daughter cells genetically unique from each other and parent
