Ch 10: Cell Growth and Division
10.1: Cell Growth
Cells
 Does not continue to
grow bigger
 Cells just continue to
produce more cells
Limits to Cell Growth
 2 main reasons
1.Larger a cell
becomes, the more
demands the cell
places on its DNA
Limits to Cell Growth
 2 main reasons
2. Cell has more trouble
moving enough
nutrients and wastes
in and out of cell
Reason #1 DNA “overload”
 DNA = information that
controls a cell’s function
 if cells grow, DNA does not
make extra copies
 DNA would not be able to
serve the needs of the cell
Reason #2: Exchanging Materials
 how fast materials leave
or enter the cell depends
on surface area
 food and oxygen depend
on cell volume
Ratio of Surface Area to Volume
 as surface area
increases, its volume
increases at a faster
rate
Ratio of Surface Area to Volume
Consequence = cells have
a more difficult time to
move needed materials in
and waste products out
Cell Division
 how cells reproduce
 one cell divides into
2 new cells
 daughter cells
Cell Division
before cell division cell copies DNA
Each daughter cell
gets own copy of DNA

2 Stages
1. Mitosis = division of the
cell nucleus
2. Cytokinesis = division of
the cytoplasm
Mitosis
 asexual
 source of new cells
Chromosomes
 carries the genetic
information
 consists of DNA
 cells have specific
number of chromosomes
Chromosome
 not visible until cell
division
 replicated before cell
division
 chromosomes change
form to chromatids
Chromatids
 Separate from each
other and go into
daughter cells
 attached at a centromere
 located near the middle
of the chromatids
Centromere
Chromatid
Cell Cycle
 cell reproduction
 forms two daughter
cells
 in between period =
interphase
Cell Cycle: 4 phases
 consists of 4 phases
 M phase = mitosis and
cytokinesis
 S phase = chromosome
replication (S = synthesis)
 G1 and G2 (G = gap) -growth and activity
Interphase
 3 of the 4
phases occur
G1
 S phase
G2
G1 Phase
 cell growing
 increase in
size and
synthesize
new proteins
and
organelles
S Phase
 chromosome
replication
 proteins
synthesized
G2 Phase
 DNA
replication
complete at
beginning
 shortest
phase
G2 Phase
 organelles
produced
 prepare for
cell division

Interphase
 In between periods of cell division
 Cell growth and DNA replication occur
Prophase
 first and longest phase (50%60%)
 chromosome becomes visible
 centrioles take position on
opposite sides of nucleus at
the centrosome
Prophase
 Centrioles lie in centrosome so
they can organize the spindle
 Spindle = fanlike microtubule
structure that helps separate the
chromosomes
Prophase
 end = chromosomes coil and
nuclear envelope break down
Metaphase
 lasts only a few minutes
 chromosomes line up
across the center of the cell
Metaphase (cont)
 microtubules connect the
centromere of each
chromosome to the two poles
of the spindle
Anaphase
 centromeres that join the
sister chromatids split into
individual chromosomes and
are moved apart to opposite
poles
Telophase
 chromosomes become dense
material
 spindle breaks apart
 nucleolus appears
Cytokinesis
 Division of cytoplasm
 usually occurs the same time
as telophase
 Animal Cell = cell membrane
draw inward and pinched off
 Plant cell = cell plate forms
midway between the 2 nuclei;
cell wall appears

Review: Cell Cycle
 Steps of Cell Division
 Mitosis
 Prophase
 Metaphase
 Anaphase
 Telophase /
Cytokinesis
 Look at Figure 10.7
 Observe what is going on
 What is happening in
each step?
Cyclin
 protein
 regulates the timing
of the cell cycle in
eukaryotic cells
Regulatory Proteins
 Two types
1.Internal Regulators
2.External Regulators
Internal Regulators
 proteins that respond to
events inside the cell
 signals cell cycle to
continue ONLY WHEN
OTHER THINGS ARE
COMPLETE
External Regulator
 proteins that respond to
events outside the cell
 direct cells to speed up or
slow down the cell cycle
 example: growth regulators
Uncontrolled Cell Growth
 Cancer
 body loses ability to control
growth
 does not respond to the
regulator proteins
 result = large masses of cells
Tumors
masses of cells
 damages the surrounding
tissues
 cells break off and spread
throughout the body
Cause of cancer
 brought on by smoking
tobacco
 radiation exposure
 viral infection
 etc
