The Cell Cycle Remember: When cells get to large they cannot get enough nutrients into and out of the cell. Cell division prevents the cell from becoming too large. Cell division is the way the cell reproduces so that you grow and heal certain injuries. Cell division is asexual reproduction meaning the offspring are clones/identical to the parent. Cellular Reproduction Section 1 Cellular Growth
2
Cells reproduce by a cycle of growing and dividing called the cell cycle. The cell cycle includes the following 5 phases Interphase 1.G1 (1 st growth phase) 2.S (Synthesis phase) 3.G2 (2 nd growth phase) 4.Mitosis 5.Cytokinesis Cellular Reproduction Section 1 Cellular Growth
3
Interphase is the stage during which the cell grows, carries out cellular functions, and replicates. Mitosis is the stage of the cell cycle during which the cell’s nucleus and nuclear material divide. Cytokinesis is the method by which a cell’s cytoplasm divides, creating a new cell.

Stages of Interphase
5
Cellular Reproduction The Stages of Interphase G 1 - The first stage of interphase The cell is growing Carrying out normal cell functions Section 1
6
Cellular Reproduction The cell copies its DNA in preparation for cell division. S – Synthesis Second Stage of Interphase Section 1
7
Cellular Reproduction G 2 Third Stage of Interphase The cell prepares for the division of its nucleus. Section 1
8
Cellular Reproduction Mitosis Mitosis is the division of the nucleus where the DNA is divided equally into two new nuclei. During the S Phase of interphase, the DNA is copied Section 2
9
Cellular Reproduction Mitosis It is very important that all of the DNA gets copied correctly and equally divided among the new nuclei so that the 2 new cells are exactly the same. Incorrectly divided/copied DNA results in a mutation and possible cell death Section 2
10
Cellular Reproduction The Stages of Mitosis There are 4 phases of Mitosis Prophase – Pro’s are first Metaphase – Middle; chromosomes align in the middle Anaphase – Apart; chromosomes pulled apart Telophase – Two nuclei Section 2
12
Cellular Reproduction The Stages of Mitosis - First Prophase The cell’s chromatin (DNA) scrunches together, it tightens and condenses as X shaped chromosomes. Sister chromatids are attached at the centromere, the center of the chromosome Section 2
14
Cellular Reproduction The nuclear envelope and nucleolus seem to disappear. Spindle fibers form in the cytoplasm. Section 2 Prophase
15
Cellular Reproduction Metaphase Spindle fibers attach to the chromosomes. Chromosomes align toward the center of the cell. They line up along the middle of the cell. Section 2
16
Cellular Reproduction Anaphase Section 2 The microtubules of the spindle apparatus begin to shorten. The sister chromatids separate and pull apart. The chromosomes move toward the poles of the cell.
17
Cellular Reproduction Telophase Section 2 Two new nuclear membranes begin to form around the DNA and the nucleoli reappear. The spindle apparatus disassembles Chromosomes decondense or relax

20
Cellular Reproduction Cytokinesis Cytokinesis is the final step of the cell cycle where the cell’s cytoplasm divides into 2 new cells In animal cells: a cleavage furrow forms where microfilaments constrict, or pinch, the cytoplasm. In plant cells: a cell plate forms which is a new structure that divides the cell. Section 2

Cellular Reproduction Mitosis Section 2 Mitosis and Cytokinesis
23
Cell Cycle Regulation Cellular Reproduction Normal Cell Cycle The cell cycle has built-in checkpoints that monitor the cycle and can stop it if something goes wrong. If the cell cycle is not monitored, then cancer can result. Section 3
24
Cellular Reproduction Abnormal Cell Cycle: Cancer Cancer is the uncontrolled growth and division of cells. Cancer cells can kill an organism by crowding out normal cells, resulting in the loss of tissue function. Section 3 Cell Cycle Regulation
25
Cellular Reproduction Causes of Cancer The changes that occur in the regulation of cell growth and division of cancer cells are due to mutations. Various environmental factors can affect the occurrence of cancer cells. Cigarette smoke – lung cancer Asbestos – lung cancer Sun Exposure – skin cancer and cataracts Section 3 Cell Cycle Regulation
