MITOTIC CELL DIVISION Cell Reproduction Without Sex Cell Life Cycle • cell life cycle includes a period of growth and preparation for cell division (blue). This period is called Interphase. • mitosis is the period of time that the cell spends reproducing. Plant Cell Mitosis • the many stages of the cell life cycle can be seen in the image to the right • the process of cell reproduction includes prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase Interphase • longest phase of life cycle • G1 – phase of rapid growth and increase in protein and cell RNA • S – synthesis phase when DNA duplicates • G2 - phase of organelle development and growth in preparation for cell division Prophase • chromosomes appear • the nucleolus disappears • the cell membrane begins to break down Very Late Prophase • nuclear membrane has disappeared • chromosomes start to move to the equator of the cell • each chromosome has two identical chromatids Metaphase • chromosomes align along the equator of the cell • spindles that are attached to the poles connect to the centromeres Early Anaphase • chromosomes are pulled to the poll by the contraction of the spindle fibers • chromatids are separated at the centromere Late Anaphase • chromosomes begin to congregate at the poles • the energy for this process if provided by the mitochondria Early Telophase • the new cell wall begins to form to separate the new cell • the chromosomes begin to form a nucleus Late Telophase • the chromosomes start to uncoil and become less dense • two new identical cells are formed Mitosis Review • all four stages of mitosis can be seen in this picture. • note the process by which the red and blue chromosomes separate.
