Mitosis and Meiosis
Biology II
Warm-up (10-31-14)
• What are mitosis and meiosis?
• Why are there two processes? What is the
difference?
Outline for the day
• Objectives
• Cell Introduction
Objectives
• To introduce the topic of mitosis and meiosis
and begin the description of cell division.
Warm up (11-3-14)
• Why is cell division important to the cell?
• What has to happen in order for a cell to
divide?
Outline
• Objectives
• Cell Cycle Notes
Objectives
• To determine what the cell cycle is and what
its purpose is.
The Cell Cycle
•
•
•
•
What is it?
What are the parts?
What is cell division?
Why is cell division important?
Cell Division
• Rudolf Virchow
– German Physician
– All cells must come from a previously existing cell
– 1855
– Part of cell theory
• In order to have cells reproducing, they have
to go through cell division (reproduction of
cells)
Cell Division
• Can either produce an entire organism or just
a small portion of one.
– Give an example of a situation where cell division
produces an entire organism…
• Think of the differences between cells… we have both
unicellular and multicellular organisms
• Why is it important?
– Renew and repair damaged cells
– Growth of an organism (think of how babies
begin… how many cells are they at first?)
Cell Cycle
• Life of a cell from first formation through cell
division
• What is produced at the end of the cell cycle?
– Identical daughter cells with identical genetic
material
– What is an evolutionary significance of having
identical genetic information?
– What might an evolutionary disadvantage be of
having identical genetic information?
Cellular Organization
• Genome: cell’s DNA or genetic information
– Prokaryote: a single long DNA molecule
– Eukaryote: a number of DNA molecules
• Overall length of DNA is very long in eukaryotes
• Chromosomes: package of DNA molecules
– Each eukaryote has a unique number of
chromosomes…. How many do humans have?
• Somatic cells: have 46 chromosomes or 23 pairs of
chromosomes
• Gametes: only have 23 chromosomes…. Why is this
important??
Distribution of Chromosomes
• Chromatin: makes up chromosomes in
eukaryotes, DNA and its associated proteins
• Sister chromatids: compose a duplicated
chromosome
– Each contain identical DNA
– In condensed form, it has a center region where
the sister chromatids are most closely attached
called the centromere
– After separation, they are individual
chromosomes
Mitosis vs. Cytokinesis vs. Meiosis
• Mitosis: division of the nucleus, production of
somatic cells
• Cytokinesis: division of the cytoplasm
• Meiosis: production of gametes, daughter
cells are not identical to parent, they only
have one set of chromosomes
Is a cell always dividing?
• Phases of the cell cycle
– Mitotic (M) phase
• Mitosis and cytokinesis
• Typically the shortest part of the cell cycle
– Interphase
• 90% of cell cycle
– Cell grows, replicates DNA, prepares for cell division
1. G1 phase (first gap)
2. S phase (synthesis)
3. G2 phase (second gap)
– Cell grows, produces proteins, produces organelles
4. finally, comes the Mitotic phase (not part of interphase)
Stages of Mitosis

Prophase
Prometaphase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
1. Cytokinesis overlaps with the later stages of
mitosis
Look at the pictures!!
• Check out the diagram and discuss what you
notice. What are some of the interesting
defining characteristics during each of the
phases?
• Now look at the worksheet. It will help walk
you through the different stages of mitosis
Regulation of Mitosis
• There is a checkpoint system built into the cell
cycle.
– Molecular control
– G2 checkpoint
– M phase checkpoint
• Separation of sister chromatids cannot begin until lined up at
metaphase plate and attached to spindle fibers
• Why is it evolutionarily beneficial to have the
regulation of mitosis?
– What does having checkpoints help prevent?
Haploid vs. Diploid
Haploid
• The daughter cell has half of
the number of
chromosomes as the parent
cell
Diploid
• The daughter cell has the
same number of
chromosomes as the parent
cell
Meiosis
• Meiosis I
– Looks similar to mitosis
• Meiosis II
– Creates a haploid cell
Warm up (11-4-14)

• Do you think all cells go through the cell cycle
at the same rate? Give an example of cells
that you think reproduce quickly

Twizzler Mitosis and Meiosis
Warm up (11-7-14)
• Think of why each of the phases in mitosis is
evolutionarily significant. In other words, how
are each of these phases an adaptation that
allows a cell to be better suited for its
environment?
