Transcript Mitosis

Cell Reproduction Part 1
“All cells come from pre-existing cells.”
Cells must divide for...
 Growth
 Repair
 Reproduction
The Star of Our Show



Prior to division, chromosomes are
duplicated.
A single stranded chromosome
becomes a double stranded
chromosome.
The two strands are IDENTICAL

The identical strands
are called sister
chromatids.

They are held
together by a
centromere.

The Cell Cycle
The Cell Cycle
 The
life of a eukaryotic cell is
traditionally shown as a cycle.
Cell Cycle Summary
 G1
– Cell growth phase
 S – New DNA is synthesized
 G2 – Preparation for cell
division
 M & C - Cell division
Mitosis
Division
of the nucleus to
form two new nuclei with
the same number and
type of chromosomes as
the parent cell.
Cytokinesis
The
division of the
cytoplasm to form two
new cells.
Before Mitosis




Interphase is the
period between cell
division. (G1, S & G2)
Cell growth.
Chromosomes
duplicate.
Synthesis of organelles
and materials needed
for cell division.
Now it’s Mitosis Time!
Cells spend 90% of their lives
during Interphase. So, once we
get to Mitosis – it’s GO time!
Prophase


Chromatin
condenses into
chromosomes.
The nuclear
membrane
disappears.
Metaphase

Chromosomes line
up across the
equator, or center,
of the cell.
Anaphase
 Sister
chromatids are
pulled to
opposite sides
of the cell &
away from
each other.
Telophase



New nuclear
membranes appear.
Cytokinesis begins.
Chromosomes
uncoil.
After Mitosis
 Cells
undergo Cytokinesis
–The cytoplasm of the cell is
divided in half
–The cell membrane grows to
enclose each cell
 Results in TWO genetically
IDENTICAL cells
Animal Cell Cytokinesis
 The
cell
membrane is
pinched in
half by a belt
of protein
threads
Plant Cell Cytokinesis
A
cell plate
forms in the
center of the
dividing cell
then fuses to
make a new
cell wall.
