How do cells grow &
reproduce?
In the Beginning – One Cell
• Most of the organisms start out as one cell
• Humans start out as a single cell, the zygote, formed
by uniting a sperm and egg
• The zygote divides to make trillions of cells
• During the process of dividing, cells become
specialized to function in the various tissues and
organs of the body = differentiation
• Mitosis is the process of cell division in eukaryotic
cells
The Cell Cycle =
Sequences of growth and division of a cell
Two main parts:
1. Interphase – growth phase; takes most of the time
2. Mitosis – cell division phase

The Cell Life Cycle
Gap 1 - Doubling
of cell size,
increase in the
number of
organelles, regular
cellular activities
S - Synthesis of
DNA

Gap 2 - Final
preparation for
division
Mitosis - Cell
division
S phase – DNA replication

INTERPHASE:
nuclear envelope is
clearly visible
chromatin =
uncoiled DNA

Prophase
• Centrioles move to the
opposite sides of cell
• Spindle fibers from
centrioles connect with
chromosomes

Telophase
• Chromosomes
uncoil
• Two identical
nuclei are formed
(DNA is in the
chromatin form)
• Nuclear membrane
& nucleolus
reappear
Cytoplasmic Division: Cytokinesis
• Division of a cell’s cytoplasm to form two
identical cells
• Usually begins in late anaphase
• Interphase begins when cytokinesis is
complete

Results of Mitosis:
Two new diploid cells with chromosomes that
are identical to those of the parent cell
Hmm…
Why is it necessary for a cell’s chromosomes to
be distributed to its daughter cells in such a
precise manner?
