2. Cell begins to divide

3. Two identical haploid cells.

04/20/23 31

CELL DIVISION IN EUKARYOTES Both the cytoplasm and the

nucleus divide. Two types:

1. MITOSIS (clones)

A. Reproduction of unicellular organisms

B. Addition of cells to a tissue or organ.

2. MEIOSIS (gametes/sex cells)

A. 1/2 the chromosome number

B. Cells recombine in sexual reproduction.

04/20/23 32

DNA Replication

The DNA must be copied and then divided exactly so that each cell gets an identical copy.

04/20/23 33

Cellular Reproduction (Mitosis)

A. Growth is the result of a cell’s ability to reproduce itself.

04/20/23 34

Cellular Reproduction (Mitosis)

(1) New body cells are produced from other, already existing cells; when one cell becomes two.

(Recall “The Cell Theory”)

04/20/23 35

Cellular Reproduction (Mitosis)

(2) Examples: Skin cells, intestinal tracts cells are continuously being replaced.

04/20/23 36

Cellular Reproduction (Mitosis) B. New cells are produced

that contain the same genetic information as the cells from which they came.

04/20/23 37

Cellular ReproductionC. Mitosis = The process that

produces and replaces body cells; exact copies.

(i.e. skin cells)

1. Continuance of an individual’s growth throughout life.

04/20/23 38

Cellular ReproductionD. Meiosis = The process that

produces reproductive cells needed for the formation of new individuals.

1. Continuance of the species.

04/20/23 39

Cellular Reproduction

I. Life from Life = Cells from Cells

A. Disproving Spontaneous Generation:

04/20/23 40

04/20/23 41

Cellular Reproduction B. Louis Pasteur disproved the theory

that microorganisms are not spontaneously generated from air.

1. Used a flask with a long S-shaped neck, boiled broth.

04/20/23 42

Cellular Reproduction C. Reproduction of Body Cells (Mitosis)

1. Cell reproduction occurs when parent cells divide.

A. Two new daughter cells arise from each parent cell.

04/20/23 43

development, an organism needs new cells to:

(1) repair damaged tissue, replace cells that are lost from outer surfaces (skin cells) and resist disease.

04/20/23 44

DNA wraps around during chromosome formation.

04/20/23 56

04/20/23 57

Vocabulary

-Cell plate = forms the plasma membrane between two new plant cells.

-Spindle (shown in green) = Structure located between the centrioles of a cell.

04/20/23 58

The Four Stages of Mitosis(1) Prophase (first stage of mitosis)

A. Chromosomes condense and organize: nuclear membranes and nucleoli disappear; spindle apparatus assemble and attach to centromeres of duplicated chromosomes.

-Each strand is a replica of the other and is called a chromatid.

04/20/23 59

The Four Stages of Mitosis(2) Metaphase (second stage of

mitosis)

A. Spindles line up duplicated chromosomes along the equator (middle) of the cell, one spindle to each half or chromatid of the duplicated chromosome.

04/20/23 60

The Four Stages of Mitosis(3) Anaphase (third stage of mitosis)

A. The centromere of each duplicated chromosome is separated and paired chromatids are pulled apart.

04/20/23 61

The Four Stages of Mitosis

(4) Telophase (Forth stage of mitosis)

A. Chromosomes uncoil: nucleoli reappear, cytokinesis

(Cyto = cell, Kine = movement) occurs and genetically identical daughter cells are produced.

-(In animal cells, the plasma

membrane pinches in.)

-(In most plants, a cell plate begins to appear.)

04/20/23 62

04/20/23 63

Cytokinesis

04/20/23 64

Summary of Mitosis Prophase:

Chromosomes condense Nuclear envelope disappears centrosomes move to opposite sides of the cell Spindle forms and attaches to centromeres on

the chromosomes

Metaphase Chromosomes lined up on equator of spindle centrosomes at opposite ends of cell

Anaphase Centromeres divide: each 2-chromatid

chromosome becomes two 1-chromatid chromosomes

Chromosomes pulled to opposite poles by the spindle

Telophase Chromosomes de-condense Nuclear envelope reappears Cytokinesis: the cytoplasm is divided into 2 cells

04/20/23 65

Mitosis Review

04/20/23 66

Control of the Cell Cycle A. Rate of Cell Division

1. Different types of cells divide at different rates.

2. Bone marrow cells reproduce rapidly to form new red blood cells.

-Red Blood Cells are replaced every 120 days.

04/20/23 67

Control of the Cell Cycle 3. Nerve and muscle cells

never reproduce once they mature.

04/20/23 68

Control of the Cell Cycle

4. If one kind of cell begins to reproduce too rapidly, cancer develops.

(a) Malignant Cancers are deadly.

(b) Benign Cancers are not usually deadly.

04/20/23 69

Regulation of the Cell Cycle

A. Most normal cells will divide repeatedly until they come in contact with another cell.

04/20/23 70

Regulation of the Cell Cycle B. When cells stop dividing, they

always stop at the same point in the cell cycle –just before DNA replication begins in interphase.

04/20/23 71

Regulation of the Cell Cycle

C. Control proteins have been discovered that can activate mitosis.

04/20/23 72

Meiosis (Sexual Reproduction)

A. Meiosis – Reduces the chromosome number by half and results in new genetic combinations in the gametes.

04/20/23 73

Meiosis (Sexual Reproduction)

B. This process of cell division is involved in sexual reproduction.

(1) Recall: Mitosis is for cellular reproduction

04/20/23 74

Meiosis (Sexual Reproduction)C. In animals meiosis often results in two

gametes: haploid egg (1n) cells and haploid sperm cells (1n).

(1) Sperm (n) + Egg (n) =

Zygote/Fertilized Egg (diploid/2n)

(2) Zygote develops into a new organism.

(3) Meiosis and fertilization are important processes because they result in genetic variation.

04/20/23 75

Meiosis (Sexual Reproduction)D. In meiosis two nuclear divisions

take place (Meiosis I, Meiosis II) instead of one as in mitosis.

04/20/23 76

Meiosis (Sexual Reproduction) E. Meiosis I, like mitosis,

follows a period of interphase.

04/20/23 77

Meiosis (Sexual Reproduction)F. Meiosis II occurs in each cell

formed during Meiosis I.

04/20/23 78

Cell Reproduction in Prokaryotes

A. Cell reproduction in prokaryotes (bacteria) is through binary fission.

B. Each new cell receives a copy of the single chromosome.

C. Prokaryotes have a single chromosome (no protein spools)

04/20/23 82

Steps of Binary Fission in BacteriaSee Packet (p.39)

1. The single chromosome is attached to the inside of the cell membrane.

2. A duplicate chromosome is formed.

3. The new chromosome attaches to the cell membrane.

4. Growth of new cell membrane and cell wall material separates the two copies of the chromosome and elongates the cell.

04/20/23 83

Steps of Binary Fission in Bacteria

5. More new membrane and cell wall form and push inward at the midpoint of the length of the cell.

6. The two chromosomes become separated.

7. Two separate daughter cells are produced.

04/20/23 84

Cellular Reproduction

“Answers to first page of packet” p.37

Many early scientists performed faulty experiments that convinced them that (1) nonliving things could give rise to living things. This idea is called (2) spontaneous generation.

04/20/23 85

Cellular Reproduction

In 1668, (3) Francisco Redi disproved this theory. However, in 1675, the world of (4) microorganisms was discovered, reopening the split between scientists over spontaneous generation.

04/20/23 86

Cellular Reproduction

An experiment performed by (5) Louis Pasteur in 1864 ended the debate. At the time, (6) air was believed to be necessary for spontaneous generation. Pasteur proved that microorganisms are not spontaneously generated.

04/20/23 87

Cellular Reproduction

This work led to the theory of (7) biogenesis, which stated that all organisms are produced from other (8) organisms. This tied in with the (9) cell theory, formulated about the same time. By the late 19th century, scientists worked with these two theories that indicated that all life must come from (10) life.

04/20/23 88

Cellular Reproduction

11. Early in the organism’s development, the cells contribute to overall growth. Later, new cells are needed to repair damaged tissues, replace lost cells, and resist disease.

04/20/23 89

Cellular Reproduction

12. What would happen to a cell if it continued to grow unchecked?

The surface area of the plasma membrane would not be large enough to meet the cell’s needs. The cell would stare or become poisoned.

04/20/23 90

Cellular Reproduction

13. Replication is the process of making an exact copy. It provides the cell with a second set of chromosomes for reproduction.

14. Interphase and mitosis make up the cell cycle.
