Cell Division
needed for
Growth and Repair
Mitosis
•
•
•
•
•
Produces genetically identical cells
DNA replicates in parent cell
Cell divides to produce 2 new cells
Each with exact copy of parent DNA
Variation only if a mutation occurs
The Cell Cycle
Cytokinesis:cytoplasm divides
Nucleus divides
growth
new protein and
organelles made
mitosis
G1
Proteins needed for
cell division made G2
S
DNA replicates
Amount of DNA during the cell
cycle
S phase
Mitosis
Interphase
Cytokinesis
Interphase
nucleolus
chromatin threads
nuclear membrane
centrioles
Interphase
Prophase

Chromosomes shorten and
thicken becoming visible
CONDENSATION

Nuclear envelope breaks
down

Nucleolus breaks down

Centrioles duplicate
Prophase
 Centrioles move to
opposite poles of the
cell
 Centrioles start to
produce spindle fibres
early prophase
prophase
Metaphase
 Chromosomes line
up at the equator
 Chromosomes are
attached to the
spindle by the
centromere
metaphase
Anaphase
 Spindle fibres
contract pulling the
sister chromatids
apart
Anaphase
 Spindle fibres
contract pulling the
sister chromatids
apart
Anaphase
 Chromatids
approach the poles
Anaphase
Late anaphase
Telophase
 Chromatids reach
opposite poles. At
the poles they are
called chromosomes
Telophase
 Nuclear membrane
begins to form
around each set of
chromosomes
 Spindle breaks
down
Telophase
 Constriction of the
cytoplasm begins to
separate the cells
CYTOPLASMIC
CLEAVAGE or
CYTOKINESIS
Telophase
Cytokinesis
 Membrane divides
the cells
 Cell walls are
formed in plants and
fungi
Cytokinesis
 Chromosomes
become long and thin
 Chromosomes are
indistinct
CHROMATIN
 Nucleolus reappears
Cytokinesis in a plant cell
 Cells enter interphase
 They grow
 Copy DNA
 Replicate organelles
 Ready to divide
Why mitosis is important
• Growth - each new cell is identical to
the parent cell, CLONE
• Repair - replace damaged cells, e.g.
red cells are replaced about every
3months
• Asexual reproduction - Single celled
organisms divide to produce two
daughter cells
