divided exactly so that each cell gets an
identical copy.
7/18/2015
32
Cellular Reproduction
(Mitosis)
A. Growth is the result
of a cell’s ability to
reproduce itself.
7/18/2015
33
Cellular Reproduction
(Mitosis)
(1) New body cells are
produced from other,
already existing cells; when
one cell becomes two.
(Recall “The Cell Theory”)
7/18/2015
34
Cellular Reproduction
(Mitosis)
(2) Examples: Skin
cells, intestinal tracts
cells are continuously
being replaced.
7/18/2015
35
Cellular Reproduction
(Mitosis)
B. New cells are produced
that contain the same
genetic information as
the cells from which they
came.
7/18/2015
36
Cellular Reproduction
C. Mitosis = The process that
produces and replaces body
cells; exact copies.
(i.e. skin cells)
1. Continuance of an individual’s
growth throughout life.

Cellular Reproduction
B. Louis Pasteur disproved the theory
that microorganisms are not
spontaneously generated from air.
1. Used a flask with a long S-shaped
neck, boiled broth.
2. Pasteurization is the partial
sterilization of a substance by
increasing the temperature of that
substance to destroy objectionable
organisms (i.e. bacteria).
7/18/2015
41
Cellular Reproduction
C. Reproduction of Body Cells (Mitosis)
1. Cell reproduction occurs when parent
cells divide.
A. Two new daughter cells arise from
each parent cell.
7/18/2015
42
Cellular Reproduction
B. After reaching full
development, an organism
needs new cells to:
(1) repair damaged tissue,
replace cells that are lost
from outer surfaces (skin
cells) and resist disease.
7/18/2015
43

Vocabulary
-Cell plate = forms the plasma
membrane between two new plant
cells.
-Spindle (shown in green) =
Structure located between the
centrioles of a cell.
7/18/2015
57
The Four Stages of
Mitosis
(1) Prophase (first stage of mitosis)
A. Chromosomes condense
and organize: nuclear
membranes and nucleoli
disappear; spindle apparatus
assemble and attach to
centromeres of duplicated
chromosomes.
7/18/2015
-Each strand is a replica of the
other and is called a chromatid. 58
The Four Stages of
Mitosis
(2) Metaphase (second stage of
mitosis)
A. Spindles line up duplicated
chromosomes along the equator
(middle) of the cell, one spindle to
each half or chromatid of the
duplicated chromosome.
7/18/2015
59
The Four Stages of
Mitosis
(3) Anaphase (third stage of mitosis)
A. The centromere of each
duplicated chromosome is
separated and paired chromatids
are pulled apart.
7/18/2015
60
The Four Stages of
Mitosis
(4) Telophase (Forth stage of mitosis)
A. Chromosomes uncoil: nucleoli
reappear, cytokinesis
(Cyto = cell, Kine = movement)
occurs and genetically identical
daughter cells are produced.
-(In animal cells, the plasma
membrane pinches in.)
-(In most plants, a cell plate begins
to appear.)

Summary of Mitosis

Prophase:
 Chromosomes condense
 Nuclear envelope disappears
 centrosomes move to opposite sides of the cell
 Spindle forms and attaches to centromeres on
the chromosomes

Metaphase
 Chromosomes lined up on equator of spindle
 centrosomes at opposite ends of cell
Anaphase
 Centromeres divide: each 2-chromatid
chromosome becomes two 1-chromatid
chromosomes
 Chromosomes pulled to opposite poles by the
spindle
Telophase
 Chromosomes de-condense
 Nuclear envelope reappears
 Cytokinesis: the cytoplasm is divided into 2 cells

red blood cells.
-Red Blood Cells are
replaced every 120 days.
7/18/2015

7/18/2015
67
Control of the Cell Cycle
4. If one kind of cell begins
to reproduce too rapidly,

deadly.
(b) Benign Cancers are
not usually deadly.
7/18/2015
68
Regulation of the Cell Cycle
A. Most normal cells will divide
repeatedly until they come in
contact with another cell.
7/18/2015
69
Regulation of the Cell Cycle
B. When cells stop dividing, they
always stop at the same point in
the cell cycle –just before DNA
replication begins in interphase.
7/18/2015
70
Regulation of the Cell Cycle
C. Control proteins have
been discovered that
can activate mitosis.
7/18/2015
71
Meiosis (Sexual Reproduction)
A. Meiosis – Reduces the
chromosome number by
half and results in new
genetic combinations in
the gametes.
7/18/2015
72
Meiosis (Sexual Reproduction)
B. This process of cell division is
involved in sexual reproduction.
(1) Recall: Mitosis is for cellular
reproduction
7/18/2015
73
Meiosis (Sexual Reproduction)
C. In animals meiosis often results in two
gametes: haploid egg (1n) cells and
haploid sperm cells (1n).
(1) Sperm (n) + Egg (n) =
Zygote/Fertilized Egg (diploid/2n)
(2) Zygote develops into a new organism.
(3) Meiosis and fertilization are important
processes because they result in genetic
variation.
7/18/2015
74
Meiosis (Sexual Reproduction)
D. In meiosis two nuclear divisions
take place (Meiosis I, Meiosis II)
instead of one as in mitosis.
7/18/2015
75
Meiosis (Sexual Reproduction)
E. Meiosis I, like mitosis,
follows a period of interphase.
7/18/2015
76
Meiosis (Sexual Reproduction)
F. Meiosis II occurs in each cell
formed during Meiosis I.

Cell Reproduction in
Prokaryotes
7/18/2015
A. Cell reproduction in
prokaryotes (bacteria) is
through binary fission.
B. Each new cell receives a
copy of the single
chromosome.
C. Prokaryotes have a single
chromosome (no protein
spools)
81
Steps of Binary Fission in Bacteria
See Packet (p.39)
1. The single chromosome is attached
to the inside of the cell membrane.
2. A duplicate chromosome is formed.
3. The new chromosome attaches to
the cell membrane.
4. Growth of new cell membrane and
cell wall material separates the two
copies of the chromosome and
elongates the cell.
7/18/2015
82
Steps of Binary Fission in Bacteria
5. More new membrane and cell
wall form and push inward at
the midpoint of the length of
the cell.
6. The two chromosomes
become separated.
7. Two separate daughter cells
are produced.

Cellular Reproduction
“Answers to first page of packet” p.37
Many early scientists performed
faulty experiments that convinced
them that (1) nonliving things
could give rise to living things.
This idea is called (2)
spontaneous generation.
7/18/2015
84
Cellular Reproduction
In 1668, (3) Francisco Redi
disproved this theory. However, in
1675, the world of (4)
microorganisms was discovered,
reopening the split between
scientists over spontaneous
generation.
7/18/2015
85
Cellular Reproduction
An experiment performed by (5)
Louis Pasteur in 1864 ended the
debate. At the time, (6) air was
believed to be necessary for
spontaneous generation. Pasteur
proved that microorganisms are
not spontaneously generated.
7/18/2015
86
Cellular Reproduction
This work led to the theory of (7)
biogenesis, which stated that all
organisms are produced from other
(8) organisms. This tied in with
the (9) cell theory, formulated
about the same time. By the late
19th century, scientists worked with
these two theories that indicated
that all life must come from (10)
life.
7/18/2015
87
Cellular Reproduction
11. Early in the organism’s
development, the cells contribute
to overall growth. Later, new cells
are needed to repair damaged
tissues, replace lost cells, and
resist disease.
7/18/2015
88
Cellular Reproduction
12. What would happen to a cell if it
continued to grow unchecked?
The surface area of the plasma
membrane would not be large
enough to meet the cell’s needs.
The cell would stare or become
poisoned.
7/18/2015
89
Cellular Reproduction
13. Replication is the process of
making an exact copy. It provides
the cell with a second set of
chromosomes for reproduction.
14. Interphase and mitosis make up
the cell cycle.
7/18/2015
