Cell Growth and
Division
Chapter 10(M)
Limits to Cell Size
Cells grow and increase in size
Upper limit to the size of a single cell
If cells keep growing
More
demands are placed on the DNA
Cells becomes less efficient in moving
nutrients and wastes
Cells divide before it becomes too large
Cell Size
As a cell increases in size its volume increases
faster than its surface area.
Smaller
objects have a greater
ratio of surface area to volume.
Purpose of Cell Division
Cell division essential for life
1.
Repair replacement of lost or
damaged cells
Skin cells are constantly being replaced
2.
3.
Growth cells divide and increase in
size, so that organism can grow
To maintain a favorable Surface
area to volume ratio

Cell Division and Reproduction
Asexual
Reproduction
Sexual Reproduction
Asexual Reproduction
Production of offspring from a single
parent
Offspring is identical to parent
Ex bacteria, yeast, unicellular organisms
& some multicellular organisms
Binary Fission Bacteria
Budding Yeast
Sexual Reproduction
Two parents are involved
Genetic material from each parent
combines
Offspring is different from parent
The Process of Cell Division
Genetic material - packaged as DNA is
distributed to two daughter cells
DNA
mitotic chromosome
chromatin
Chromosomes and Cell Division
1.
2.
3.
Chromatin fibers of DNA and
protein
Chromosomes Chromatin fibers
condense and become visible compact
structures
Sister Chromatids before the cell
divides the DNA duplicates and forms
identical copies
Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes
Prokaryotes, the genome is often a
single long DNA molecule
Eukaryotes, the genome consists of
several DNA molecules
DNA is passed from one generation to
the next
The Cell Cycle
An orderly sequence of events that
extends from the birth of a cell till the
time it divides itself
All Eukaryotic cells undergo this cycle
Cycle is divided into
Interphase
Mitotic
Phase
The Cell Cycle
Interphase 90% of the Cell Cycle
1.
G1(gap)phase: cell
spends most of its
functional life.
Gap bet. DNA syn
& cell div
Cell grows, protein
& organelles
synthesized
Interphase 90% of the Cell Cycle
1.
G1(gap)phase: cell
spends most of its
functional life.
Gap bet. DNA syn
& cell div
Cell grows, protein
& organelles
synthesized
Interphase contd.
S-Phase the DNA
synthesis phase.
DNA
molecules are
copied or replicated,
single stranded DNA
in G1 phase to double
stranded DNA in G2.
G2 Phase
completion of DNA
syn. & onset of cell
division
Mitotic Phase
Division of the nucleus
plus cytokinesis,
produces two identical
daughter cells
Interphase is not part
of mitosis, it
encompasses stages
G1, S, and G2 of the
cell cycle.
Interphase
Chromatin
not visible
DNA replicated
New organelles are formed
Cell grows by producing
proteins and cytoplasmic
organelles
Prepares for cell division.
Mitosis
Division
of the Nucleus
Stages
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
Prophase
Chromosomes condensed
and visible with sister
chromatids joined
together
The nucleoli disappear
Centrioles at opposite
poles of cell
The mitotic spindle
begins
to form
Phase ends with the
breakdown of the
nuclear membrane
Metaphase
The second stage
Chromosomes
gather in the a
plate across the
middle of the cell
Mitotic spindle is
fully formed
All chromosomes
are attached to
the spindle
microtubules
Anaphase
The third stage of
mitosis
The sister
chromatids suddenly
separate from their
partners.
Each chromatid
daughter
chromosomes move
toward the poles
Microtubules
shorten, bringing the
chromosomes closer
to the poles.
Telophase
The final stage of mitosis
The chromosomes reach the
poles of the spindle.
The reverse of prophase
spindle disappears, nuclear
envelopes reform, the
chromosomes uncoil and
lengthen, and nucleoli
reappear.
Two genetically identical
daughter nuclei are formed
Cytokinesis follows
Cytokinesis
Division
of the cytoplasm
Occurs along with telophase
Two daughter cells separate
Difference in animal and plant cells
Animal
Cell cell membrane pinches
off to form a cleavage furrow
Plant Cell Cell plate is formed to
divide cell into two
Animal Cell
Plant Cell
Regulating the Cell Cycle
Cell division is affected by
Cell
Density
Anchorage
Regulatory Proteins
Density dependent inhibition
Cultured cells normally
divide until they form a
single layer on the inner
surface of the culture
container
If a gap is created, the
cells will grow to fill
the gap.
Anchorage dependence
Cells must be anchored to a substratum,
typically the extracellular matrix of a tissue.
Cancer cells are free of both densitydependent inhibition and anchorage
dependence.
Regulatory Proteins
Cyclins timing of the cell cycle
Regulatory proteins
Internal
External
growth factors
Fluctuates
during cell cycle
Growth Factors
Coordination between cells
protein
signals released by body cells that
stimulate other cells to divide
Body has many different types
Each stimulates only cells with that type
of receptor
Apoptosis
Programmed cell death
Apoptotic cells shrink in size, break into
smaller pieces called apoptotic bodies
that other body cells recognize and eat.
What Causes Cancer?
Cells do not have a properly functioning
“cell cycle” control system
Cells divide excessively and result in an
abnormal mass of cells
tumor-suppressor genes gene p53
inhibits
cell division
if switched “OFF” can cause cancer
Growth Factors and Cancer
Growth factors can create cancers
proto-oncogenes
normal growth factor genes that become
oncogenes (cancer-causing) when mutated
stimulates cell growth
if switched “ON” can cause cancer
example: RAS (activates cyclins)
tumor-suppressor
genes
inhibits cell division
if switched “OFF” can cause cancer
example: p53
Tumors and Cancer
Benign
mass of normal cells
Can
be removed surgically
Always remain at their original site
Malignant
Mass
of cancer cells
Spread to other tissues by entering
the circulatory system
Metastasis
beyond site
spread of cancer cells
Types of Cancer
Carcinoma external or internal
coverings of the body-skin, intestinal
linings
Sarcoma bone and muscle
Leukemia and Lymphoma- blood forming
tissues
Treatment of Cancer
Surgery
Radiation
therapy high energy
radiation disrupts cell division
Chemotherapy drugs that inhibit
cell division
Side effects:
Radiation
can lead to sterility
Chemotherapy can cause nausea, hair
loss
