Transcript Cell Division of Human Cells

Cell Division
GOAL: To make cells w/ SAME amount of DNA
46
1. Interphase Cell copies DNA
92
2. Mitosis
46
Divides DNA Equally
46
3. Cytokinesis
46
Cytoplasm divides/Cell splits

BIG PICTURE:
Cell Division of Human Cells
Why do cells divide?
To create new life:
zygote divides to become ball of cells
Why do cells divide?
Rarely divides
To replace old cells:
Different cells divided at
different rates
Divides once/day
How fast do
Cells divide?
Never divides
Divides once/year
Rarely divides
Why do cells divide?
To help an organism grow:
adding cells makes organism bigger
Why do cells divide?
To heal from injury:
new cells fill in to help repair
Learning Terms
Thin/Stringy DNA
seen in interphase
Tightly coiled DNA
Seen in mitosis
Exact copies
centromere
Chromatin
Chromosome
Duplicated
Chromosome
Interphase
THINK! – What 2 things happen
during interphase?
Cell grows
Cell copies (doubles) its DNA
Mitosis (4 Phases)
The cell divides the DNA molecules equally
THINK! – A mosquito normally has 6 DNA
molecules. How many molecules will each cell
have after mitosis? 6
THINK! – Humans normally have 46 DNA
molecules. How many molecules will each cell
have after mitosis? 46
Phase 1: Prophase (P= Prepare)
Chromatin coils into chromosomes
Nucleus disappears
Spindle fibers appear
Phase 2: Metaphase (M= Middle)
Spindle fibers move the
duplicated chromosomes
into the middle of the cell
Phase 3: Anaphase (A=Apart)
Duplicated chromosomes
split at the centromere
Spindle fibers pull
chromosomes to opposite
sides of the cell
Phase 4: Telophase (T= Tear/Two Nuclei)
Chromosomes uncoil into
chromatin
Nucleus reappears
Spindle fibers disappear
Cytokinesis
THINK! – What happens?
Cytoplasm and organelles divided (cell splits)
Cytokinesis: Animal vs. Plant
Animal Cells
Cell membrane pinches inward
Plant Cells
Hard Cell plate forms in center
