Three reasons why cells reproduce by asexual reproduction: Growth Repair Replacement
Skin cancer - the abnormal growth of skin cells - most often develops on skin exposed to the sun.
Cell that reproduce by asexual reproduction reproduce constantly.

Anaphase
Telophase & Cytokinesis

4. Interphase Longest part of cell life
Cell carries out normal activities
DNA in long strands called chromatin & DOUBLE
Pair Centrioles
Are created
Centrioles

5. Interphase Plant Cell Animal Cell
Photographs from:

6. Phase # 1- Prophase Chromosomes coil and become visible
Centrioles (or poles) appear and begin to move to opposite end of the cell. Spindle fibers form between the poles.
Nuclear membrane disappears.
Centrioles
Sister chromatids
Spindle fibers

7. Prophase Plant Cell Animal Cell Spindle fibers Centrioles
Photographs from:

8. Metaphase
Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell on the spindle fibers.

Spindle fibers

9. Metaphase Plant Cell Animal Cell
Photographs from:

10. Anaphase
Chromatids (or halves of chromosomes) separate and begin to move to opposite ends of the cell.

Photographs from:

12. Telophase Chromatids finish separating. Nuclear membrane reforms
Chromatids unwind and become chromatin.

13. Telophase Plant Cell Animal Cell
Photographs from:

14. Cytokinesis
Cytoplasm and cell organelles divide evenly
Two new cells are formed
