Cell Division Cell Cycle, Mitosis, & Meiosis A. Why must cells divide? 1. 2. Growth of multicellular organisms a. Cells are limited by ratio of surface area to volume because: i. ______and____ can’t move in and be transported through the cell fast enough ii. ______ and ____ can’t be removed quickly enough Replacement - e.g. ________ 3. 4. Repair of damaged tissue Reproduction a. Single celled life forms reproduce by process called ___________ (asexual) b. Multi-celled organisms i. Sea star can reproduce by part of its body breaking off (asexual) ii. Meiosis – formation of ________ (egg and sperm) iii. DM reproduce asexually or sexually B. Important facts: It’s in the chromosomes! 1. 2. 3. 4. Chromosomes are made of _____coiled around_____(Fig. 8-1) Each chromosome has thousands of _______ Organisms have a certain number of chromosomes (Humans have 46; cows have 60; cats have 32) Chromosomes come in ______ ______ a. One of each pair comes from each parent b. Homologous chromosomes code for the same traits (hair color, digestive enzymes, etc.) 5. 6. 7. Sex chromosomes vs. Autosomes a. Sex chromosomes determine gender, but also code for other traits ( in humans X & Y) b. The rest of the chromosomes are _________ Diploid (2N) = 46 in humans a. Full set of chromosomes b. Somatic cells (exs._______________) c. ____________ is a picture of full set of chromosomes (fig. 8-3) Haploid (1N) = 23 in humans a. Half set of chromosomes b. ______ & ______ cells C. Cell Cycle 1. 2. hyperlink Interphase + _______(fig. 8-5) Interphase a. Not part of mitosis b. Normal functions of cell (exs._________) c. DNA is replicated in preparation for mitosis so each new cell can have a complete set of chromosomes i. Chromatids formed, but remain attached at ___________ (fig. 8-2) ii. Centromere is unreplicated part of DNA 3. Mitosis (fig. 8-6) a. hyperlink Prophase (pro=first) i. Chromatin (chromosomes & proteins) shortens and thickens; can be seen with microscope ii. Each chromosome is made up of 2 identical _____ iii. Nuclear membrane & nucleolus disintegrate iv. Centrioles (animal cells only) move to opposite poles of cell v. _________ appear; these guide chromosomes when they separate later b. Metaphase (meta=mid) i. Chromatids position at ________ of cell ii. Order appears random in contrast to meiosis iii. Spindle fibers are attached to centromeres iv. Shortest phase c. Anaphase (ana = opposite) i. Centromeres _______ ii. Chromatids separate to become individual chromosomes iii. Chr. move to opposite poles of cell Telophase (telo = end) d. i. ii. iii. iv. Chromosomes lengthen and narrow, thus become hard to see Nucleolus reappears Nuclear membrane reforms Cytokinesis – dividing of __________ Animal cells - cytoplasm pinches together at equator (fig. 8-7) Plant cells – _________ forms (fig. 8-8) Cellsalive.com 4. Significance of mitosis a. b. c. Forms 2 cells __________ to parent cell Cells are called _______ cells (mother cell no longer exists) Mitosis is a way of increasing the number of cells without changing the _______ D. Meiosis 1. 2. Meiosis is a ________ division because it reduces the number of chromosomes from diploid to haploid (46 23) Forms cells needed for sexual reproduction called _________ a. Spermatogenesis produces sperm b. Oogenesis produces _____or eggs 3. Stages of meiosis I (fig 8-9, P.154) Prophase I a. i. ii. iii. Metaphase I b. i. Tetrads line up at equator Anaphase I c. i. d. Synapsis = pairing of homologous chromosomes Pairs called _______ Crossing over may occur (fig. 8-10) which results in genetic mixing of chromosomes Homologues separate Telophase I 2 Cells; both are ___________ 4. Stages of Meiosis II (fig. 8-11, P.155) a. b. c. d. Prophase II Metaphase II – looks like metaphase of mitosis Anaphase II Telophase II 5. Significance of meiosis Produces 4 haploid cells from 1 diploid cell Sexual reproduction allows for genetic variation of offspring (young) a. b. i. ii. iii. iv. Combines chromosomes from both parents at fertilization/conception Crossing over in meiosis further mixes those genes for more variation Independent or random assortment of homologs in __________(I) means offspring will get some genes from each grandparent. Variation helps species ______to changing environment
