  1. Cell Growth and Division Mitosis and Meiosis

  2. Cell Growth When an organism grows, the number of cells increase but the size of each cell remains small.

  3. Limits to cell growth • DNA “overload”: The larger a cell becomes, the more demands the cell places on its DNA.a.DNA stores the information that controlshow a cell functions b.     When a cell is small, DNA can meet the cells needs c. When a cell is large, it still has only one copy of DNA so it is more difficult for the cell to perform its function

  4. Limits to cell growth 2. Exchanging materials: additionally, large cells have more trouble movingsubstancesacross the cell membrane. a.If a cell is too large, it is difficult to get enough oxygen and nutrients in and waste products out b. This is why cells do NOT grow much larger even if the organism does grow large

  5. Division of the Cell • Before a cell gets too large, it will divide to form two “daughter” cells • Before a cell divides, it makes a copy of its DNA for each daughter cell

  6. Cell Division • Cell division in eukaryotes is more complex than in prokaryotes. • There are two stages of eukaryotic cell division • Mitosis: Division of the cell nucleus • Cytokinesis: Division of the cell cytoplasm • Unicellular organisms reproduce asexually by mitosis a. The daughter cells are identical to the parents cells 4. Mitosis is how a multicellular organism grows and develops

  7. Chromosomes • Chromosomes are made of condensed chromatin. • Chromatin consists of DNA and the proteins it is wrapped around. • The cells of every organism have a specific number of chromosomes (humans have 46 chromosomes).

  8. 3. Chromosomes are only visible during cell division, when they are condensed. The rest of the time the chromatin is spread throughout the nucleus. • Before cell division, each chromosome is replicated (meaning copied).a. When a chromosome is replicated, it consists of two identical “sister” chromatids.b. When a cell divides the chromatids separate, and one goes to each of the two new cells. c. Sister chromatids are attached to each other at the spot called the centromere.

  9. The Cell Cycle • When a cell is NOT dividing, it is said to be in interphase. • The series of events that a cell goes through as it grows and divides is called the cellcycle.

  10. Events of the cell cycle Interphase, when the cell is NOT dividing, has three phases: G1, S, and G2. • 1.G1 phase: period of activity in which cells do most of their growing. • a.Cells increase in size • b.Cells synthesize (make) new proteins and organelles • 2.S phase: DNA (chromosomes) is replicated • 3. G2: organelles and molecules required for cell division are produced

  11. M phase is the phase of cell division. This includes: • 1.Mitosis, the division of the cell nucleus, which is made up of four segments including prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. • 2.Cytokinesis, or the division of cytoplasm. Stop at 1 minute

  12. G1 phase M phase S phase G2 phase

  13. Mitosis There are four phases in mitosis: 1.Prophase a. Longest phase in mitosis (take 50- 60% of total time mitosis requires)b.Chromosomes become visible because they are condensed

  14. c.Centrioles become visible on opposite sides of the nucleus i. The centrioles help organize the spindle, a structure made of microtubules that helps separate the chromosomes ii. Chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers near the centromere iii.Plant cells do not have centrioles but do have mitotic spindles d.Nucleolusdisappears e.Nuclear envelope breaks down

  15. 2. Metaphase a.Chromosomes line up in thecenter of the cell b. Microtubules connect to the centromeres

  16. 3. Anaphase a.Centomeres split and the sister chromatids separateb.The sister chromatids become individual chromosomes c.Chromosomes move and separate into two groups near the spindled. Anaphase ends when the chromosomes stop moving

  17. 4. Telophase a. Chromosomes change from being condensed to dispersed b. A nuclear envelope forms around each cluster of chromosomesc.Spindle breaks apartd. Nucleolus is visible in each daughter nucleus Telophase in the midbodies of two daughter cells Start at 1 minute

  18. Cytokinesis • Cytokinesis occurs within the cytoplasm of one cell. • Cell division is complete when the cytoplasm divides (pinches together to create new cells). • In plants, a structure called the cell plate forms between the two daughter nuclei. The cell plate develops into a cell membrane and cell wall.

  19. Cytokinesis • In animal cells, the cell membrane is drawn inward until the cytoplasm is pinched into two equal parts. Each part has a nucleus and cytoplasmic organelles. The cleavage of daughter cells is almost complete; this is visualized by microtubule staining

  20. Spindle forming Centrioles Centromere Chromatin Centriole Nuclear envelope Chromosomes (paired chromatids) Interphase Prophase Spindle Cytokinesis Centriole Metaphase Individual chromosomes Telophase Anaphase Nuclear envelope reforming

  21. Meiosis

  22. Chromosomes • You have 23 different pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes. • One chromosome in each pair came from your mother and one from your father.

  23. Each chromosome in a pair is said to be homologous, meaning that the chromosome from the father has a corresponding chromosome from the mother.

  24. Cells that contain both sets of homologous chromosomes are called diploid. • All of your cells except the sex cells (sperm and eggs; also called gametes) are diploid. Gametes are haploid, meaning they contain only one copy of each chromosome. • When one sperm and one egg combine their DNA, there are two versions of each chromosome.

  25. haploid haploid diploid

  26. We use “N” to represent the haploid number of chromosomes and “2N” to represent the diploid number of chromosomes. • 1. For humans, the haploid number is 23. We write this as N = 23. The diploid number is 46, which we write as 2N = 46. • 2. In fruit flies, N = 4 and 2N = 8.

  27. Meiosis Meiosis is the process that divides one diploid (2N) cell to form four haploid (N) cells. This process is a reductional division because the number of chromosomes per cell are cut in half. Meiosis is how gametes are formed.

  28. There are two divisions that occur in meiosis: Meiosis I and Meiosis II. • 1.Before meiosis I begins, cells go through Interphase I. • 2. This involves DNA replication, forming a duplicate copy of each chromosome. • 3. Each chromosome is made of two sister chromatids. centrioles Nucleus with duplicated DNA that is not condensed. cell

  29. Meiosis I is similar to mitosis. a.Prophase I: • i.Centrioles are visible on opposite sides of the nucleus • ii.Nucleolus disappears • iii.Nuclear envelope breaks down spindle centrioles DNA condensed as chromosomes

  30. iv. Homologous chromosomes pair 1. When a pair of chromosomes aligns a tetrad is formed. 2.When chromosomes form a tetrad, they exchange portions of their chromatids in a process called crossing-over. 3. Crossing-over produces new combinations of DNA. tetrad

  31. b.Metaphase I: i.Spindle fibers attach to the chromosomes at the centromere spindle centromere centrioles chromosomes (DNA)

  32. c.Anaphase I: i.Spindle fibers pull the homologous chromosomes toward opposite ends of the cell. ii.Chromosomes move and separate into two groups near the spindle iii. Anaphase ends when the chromosomes stop moving spindle chromosomes (DNA) centrioles

  33. d.Telophase I • i.Nuclear membranes form around chromosomes • ii.Daughter nuclei form e. Cytokinesis i. Cytoplasm divides Nucleus centrioles chromosomes (DNA) Nucleus

  34. Meiosis I produces two haploid (N) daughter cells that have only one copy of each chromosome. Each chromosome is made of two sister chromatids.

  35. Meiosis II After Meiosis I, cells enter Meiosis II. No DNA replication occurs between Meiosis I and Meiosis II. Meiosis II separates the sister chromatids.

  36. centrioles a.Prophase II: i.Centrioles are visible on opposite sides of the nucleus ii.Nucleolus disappears iii. Nuclear envelope breaks down chromosome

  37. centrioles b.Metaphase II: • i. Chromosomes align like they do in mitosis • ii.Chromosomes are attached to the spindle at the centromere. spindle chromosome

  38. centrioles • Anaphase II: Sister chromatids separate and move towards opposite ends of the cell. spindle chromosome

  39. centrioles d.Telophase II: • i. Nuclear membranes form around chromosomes • ii. Daughter nuclei form e.Cytokinesis: • i. Division of the cytoplasm f.Meiosis II produces four haploid (N) daughter cells nucleus chromosome

  40. Gamete formation In male animals, the haploid gametes are called sperm. In female animals, the haploid gametes are called eggs.

  41. Comparing mitosis and meiosis • Mitosis produces two genetically identical diploid (2N) cells. Mitosis allows an organism’s body to grow and to replace cells. In organisms that reproduce asexually, new organisms are produced by mitosis. • Meiosis produces four genetically different haploid (N) cells. Meiosis produces gametes for use in sexual reproduction.
