Transcript daughter cells

Introduction
Cell division and reproduction
Mitosis
when
the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell divides.
Replacing worn out cells and producing offspring identical to parent
Meiosis
The
division of a cell and its nucleus that produces haploid
daughter cells
Ensures fertilization with proper chromosome numbers
Interphase
G1
S
cell carries out normal functions
does not reproduce
chromosomes inside the cell replicate (sister chormatids)
Sister chormatids are held together near the middle of the centromere
ensures replication of cells by cell division are identical
G2
cell continues to grow
organelles replicate
Mitosis (start of the Mitotic stage)
when the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell divides.
Importance of Mitosis
replacing old, wore out, or dead cells
reproducing offspring identical to the parent (asexual
reproduction)
Phases of Mitosis
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
Prophase
The first step in Mitosis
Major events
the replicated chromosomes of DNA coil tightly together
the membrane around the nucleus breaks apart allowing
the chromosomes to move to freely around the cell
Metaphase
The second phase of Mitosis
Major events
Hair-like fibers move replicated chromosomes to the
middle of the cell
replicated sister chromatids align at the middle of the cell
Anaphase
The Third phase of Mitosis
Major events
Hairlike fibers attach to the sister chromatids of every
replicated chromosomes
Fibers pull and separate replicated chromatids to opposite
ends of the cell
chromatids begin being called chromosomes
Telophase
The fourth phase of Mitosis
Major events
A new membrane forms around each set of chromosomes
Coiled chromosomes begin to unwind
There are two new chromosomes that are identical to the
original one
The cell has not yet divided
Cytokinesis
The final phase of cell division
Major events
The
cytoplasm and its components divide into two
identical daughter cells

Meiosis
The division of a cell and its nucleus that produces
haploid daughter cells
Importances
It
ensures the common chromosme inheritance numbers
Ensures fertilization with proper number of
chromosomes
Sexual Reproduction (Meiosis)
The production of an offspring that results when the
genetic materials from two different cells combine.
Advantages
Genetic variation
Selective breeding
Disadvantages
Difficulties of sperm and egg fertilization
Time spent to grow and develop to be able to reproduce
Asexual Reproduction(Mitosis)
The production of offspring by one parent without a
sperm and an egg joining
Advantages
Does not require a mate
Less time input for more reproduction
Identical offspring is well developed for the same environment
(cloning)
Disadvantages
Lack of genetic variation
Genetic mutations that pass through generations
Conclusion
Cell division and reproduction
Mitosis
when
the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell divides.
Replacing worn out cells and producing offspring identical to parent
Meiosis
The
division of a cell and its nucleus that produces haploid
daughter cells
Ensures fertilization with proper chromosome numbers
In both ways of reproduction there is still the
foundation of the process cell division.
