Cell
Division &
Mitosis
Yay  Getting closer and
closer to the FUN stuff!!!
Cell Division
• What is cell division?
– Process where a cell splits into 2
individual daughter cells
• Why do we need cell division?
 New cells are produced for growth and to
replace damaged or old cells
• There are 2 major types
– Mitosis- division of the NUCLEUS
– Cytokinesis- division of the CYTOPLASM
DNA Replication
Replication = COPY
Original DNA
DNA must be
strand
copied or
replicated before
Two new,
cell division
identical DNA
strands
Each new cell will
then have an
identical copy of
the DNA

Chromosomes
• These are super important
little friends
• Here are some defining
characteristics
– Made of tightly coiled DNA
– Found in the NUCLEUS
– The number depends on the
organism they live in… usually
10-50
– Humans have 46 chromosomes
in pairs (23 pairs)
Chromosomes in Dividing Cells
chromosomes are
made of 2
chromatids that
are held
together by the
centromere
Called Sister Chromatids

Types of Cell Reproduction
Asexual reproduction -1 cell dividing
to make 2 new, identical daughter
cells
ex. Mitosis & Binary Fission
Sexual reproduction- two cells (egg &
sperm) making new cell (zygote) that
is NOT identical to the original
ex. Meiosis

Cell Division in Prokaryotes
Prokaryotes
(bacteria)
divide into 2
identical cells
through binary
fission

The cell cycle
• Cell Cycle- events cells go through as
they grow and divide
• The cell cycle consists of five phases:
– G1 (Primary Growth Phase)
• Cell increases in size
– S Phase (Synthesis)
• Chromosomes are replicated
– G2 (Second Growth Phase)
• Organelles are produced
– M Phase
• MITOSIS
– Cytokinesis
These three
phases are
known as
Interphase
Sketch me!!!
Interphase
• Not technically a part of mitosis
• Includes G1, S, and G2
• Organelles double in number to prepare
for division
Mitosis- Division of the nucleus
• These are the phases 

Prophase
• Spindle fibers form
• Centrioles move to
opposite poles
• Chromosomes
become visible
Metaphase
• Chromosomes line
up at the EQUATOR
Anaphase
• Centromeres divide
• Chromatids separate
and move to the
opposite poles
Telophase
• Nuclear membrane
forms around each
of the chromosomes
• Chromosomes
unwind
• Cytokinesis begins
Cytokinesis
• Cytoplasm
divides and
one cell
becomes two
individual
cells.
