Biology 3201 Cellular Reproduction Assignment By: Richard Walsh What is the Purpose of this assignment? • The Purpose of this assignment is to educate you on some very important terms that deal with cell reproduction. • These terms include: • • • • • • • Anaphase Centromere Chromatin Chromosomes Cytokenisis Daughter Cell Cell Cycle What Exactly is Anaphase? • Anaphase- A late stage of cell division during which the Centromere spits apart and chromosomes move to the poles of the spindle. < Anaphase occurring in a cell. What is a Centromere? • Centromere – The point at which two parts (sister Chromatids) of a chromosome join and at which the spindle fibers are attached during mitosis. Also called kinetochore. Centromere > What is Chromatin? • Chromatin - A complex of nucleic acids and proteins, primarily histones, in the cell nucleus that stains readily with basic dyes and condenses to form chromosomes during cell division. Chromatin > What are Chromosomes? • Chromosomes - A threadlike linear strand of DNA and associated proteins in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells that carries the genes and functions in the transmission of hereditary information. ^Chromosomes as they occur in the human body. What does the process of Cytokenisis mean? • Cytokenisis - Organic process consisting of the division of the cytoplasm of a cell following karyokinesis bringing about the separation into two daughter cells. *No pictures available What is a Daughter Cell? • Daughter Cell - Either the two cells produced during mitosis of the parent cell. Daughter cells which formed during mitosis > What is a Cell Cycle? • Cell Cycle - The series of biochemical and structural events involving the growth, replication, and division of a eukaryotic cell.
