MITOSIS
and
ASEXUAL
REPRODUCTION
Vocabulary
1. MITOSIS: when the nucleus divides to
form two nuclei and the hereditary material
duplicates and divides into two identical sets
2. CYTOKINESIS: when the cytoplasm divides
into two parts
Forms of DNA

3.
CHROMATIN: small twisted threads of
DNA in non-dividing cells
CHROMOSOMES: when chromatin
shortens and thickens in dividing cells
(humans have 46 chromosomes)
CHROMATIDS: Sister chromatids are
when a chromosome replicates and then
the two join together to make sister
chromatids.
A chromatid is just one of them. They
are just one chromosome.
ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION
 only one parent
 no special reproductive cells
 involves mitosis and cytokinesis
 each offspring has identical hereditary
information
 little variation in the species
 usually rapid and produces large numbers
of offspring
SEXUAL REPRODUCTION
 involves special reproductive cells
 usually two separate parents (or two
sexually different parts from one
organism)
 produces offspring genetically different
from the parents
 show combinations of characteristics
 ensures survival of the species by making
the population more varied
ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION IN PLANTS AND
ANIMALS ARE SIMILAR
EXCEPT:
 Animals have centrioles
 Plants - do not have centrioles
(spindles still form in plants)
 Animals – cell membrane pinches
in
 Plants – cell plate forms across
the middle of the cell and joins
with the cell wall to divide the cell
MITOSIS in a ANIMAL CELL
in the nucleus
INTERPHASE
(end of interphase – just before cell division begins)
The cell’s resting state between mitotic cycles
The cell grows
Each chromosome duplicates (becomes a double
chromosome)
Centrioles duplicate
spindle microtubules
chromatids
PROPHASE
centromere
Doubled chromosomes become visible (chromatids)
Chromatids connected at a region called the centromere
Two pairs of centrioles move to opposite poles of the cell
Microtubules extend from centrioles forming asters and a
spindle
Some microtubules attach to centromeres of the
chromosomes
Doubled chromosomes move toward the equator of the cell
Nuclear membrane and nucleoli disappear
METAPHASE
Doubled chromosomes line up at the equator
Centromeres divide and doubled
chromosomes become separate chromosomes
ANAPHASE
 Duplicate chromosomes move to opposite poles
 Microtubules of the spindle help this movement
 One complete set of chromosomes are at each pole
TELOPHASE
two new nuclei
 Chromosomes reach poles and spindles disappear
 Nuclear membrane forms and nucleoli reappear
 Two identical daughter cells are formed
MITOSIS in a ANIMAL CELL
in the cytoplasm
CYTOKINESIS
 In late anaphase and telophase
 Pinching in of the cell membrane
 Daughter cells receive

half of the cytoplasm
one of the nuclei
half of the cell organelles

MITOSIS in a PLANT CELL
Similar process in plant and animal cells
except
 no centrioles in the plant – but spindles do
form
 cell membrane does not pinch in due to the
rigid cell wall
 a cell plate forms across the middle of the
cell that divides the cell into two

BIANARY FISSION
(IN AN AMEOBA)
one cell divides into two
daughters (no parent left)
one celled organisms
(bacteria, protozoa, algae)
BUDDING
(IN YEAST)
parent divides into two unequal cells
new individual buds out of outer
surface of parent
may break off or remain on to form a
colony
yeast, hydra, sponges, and some worms
SPORE FORMATION
 specialized cells released from parent (large numbers)
 has all parts of the cell and grows into new individual
 covered by hard outer wall
 fungi, algae, protozoa
REGENERATION
 the ability of an
organism to regrow lost
parts
 regeneration power
decreased as organism
becomes more complex
 usually not used for
reproduction purposes
 hydra, planaria,
starfish, earthworm
VEGATATIVE REPRODUCTION
 when roots, stems, or leaves give rise to a new
plant
 two kinds
Natural
 bulbs (tulips, onions)
 corms (gladioli, crocuses)
 tubers – large underground stems
(potatoes)
 runners (stolons) – sideways
surface growing stem
(strawberries)
 rhizomes – sideways underground
growing stem (ferns, irises)
2. Artificial
 cutting – any part of a plant that is
used to produce a new individual

advantages to vegetative
reproduction:
 exact replica
 faster growth than from seed
 produces fruit faster
 gives high yields of fruit and nuts
