Cell Cycle

Cell cycle- The sequence of stages through which a cell passes between one cell division and the next. (The cycle begin growth and division. )

Cell Cycle The cell spends most of its time in

interphase.

Stage 1- G1- cell grows, organelles may begin to duplicate, cytoplasm increases and protein synthesis occurs

Stage 2- S- DNA replicates

Stage 3- G2-cell continues to grow, organelles double, and microtubules synthesize

Mitosis Mitosis is a type of cell division

that generates two identical daughter cells.

Mitosis occurs in body cells.

Body cells are called somatic cells.

Mitosis Mitosis is a part of the cell cycle. It has 4

phases. (PMAT)

Human cells have 46 chromosomes or 23 pairs. This is called a diploid number. (2N)

Mitosis requires only one parent -asexual reproduction.

How do little elephants grow up to be BIG elephants?

Why do animals shed their skin?

Three reasons why cells reproduce by mitosis:

1. Growth 2. Repair 3. ReplacementSkin cancer - the abnormal growth of skin cells - most often develops on skin exposed to the sun.

Cell that reproduce by asexual reproduction reproduce constantly.

• Interphase

• Prophase

• Metaphase

• Anaphase

• Telophase & Cytokinesis

Interphase occurs before mitosis begins

• Chromosomes are copied (# doubles)• Chromosomes appear as threadlike coils

(chromatin) at the start, but each chromosome and its copy(sister chromosome) change to sister chromatids at end of this phase

Prophase 1st step in Mitosis

• Mitosis begins (cell begins to divide)• Centrioles (or poles) appear and begin to

move to opposite ends of the cell. • Spindle fibers form between the poles.

Spindle fibers

Metaphase 2nd step in Mitosis

• Chromatids (or pairs of chromosomes) attach to the spindle fibers.

Anaphase 3rd step in Mitosis

• Chromatids (or pairs of chromosomes) separate and begin to move to opposite ends of the cell.

Telophase 4th step in Mitosis

• Two new nuclei form. • Chromosomes appear as chromatin

(threads rather than rods).• Mitosis ends.

Cytokinesisoccurs after mitosis

• Cell membrane moves inward to create two daughter cells – each with its own nucleus with identical chromosomes.

CHROM…words

Chromatin – uncoiled DNA + proteins (threads)

Chromosome – coiled DNA + proteins (Looks like an X)

Chromatid – only half of a chromosome

Sister chromatids – Two chromatids joined together, by a centromere, to form a chromosome
