cell division
DESCRIPTION
Prokaryotic Cells, Eukaryotic Cells, MitosisTRANSCRIPT
Prokaryotic Cells Binary
Fission1. Chromosome make a copy
of itself.
2. The prokaryotic cell grows until it is almost twice its
original size.
3. Cell splits into two cells, each containing a complete
chromosome.
Eukaryotic Cells
MITOSIS* Mitosis is the process where a cell divides to produce two cells.
* Mitosis is a division of nucleus.
FOUR PHASES
I. PROPHASE Chromosomes become visible by shortening
and coiling
II. METAPHASE
Chromosomes align
themselves in the middle of
the dividing cell.
III. ANAPHASEEach member of a chromosome pair separates and begins to
move toward the opposite end of
the cell.
IV. TELOPHASEThe cell begins to
divide into two new cells as the chromosomes reach opposite ends of the cell.
INTERPHASE
Interphase is the stage
where each chromosome makes a copy
of itself.
