This comprehensive guide explores asexual and sexual reproduction, detailing processes such as fission, budding, and fragmentation. It covers the intricacies of the cell cycle, including interphase and mitotic phases such as prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis. The impact of internal and external signals on cell division and cancer development, alongside the mechanisms of meiosis and its significance in genetic variation, are also discussed. Gain insight into the fascinating world of reproductive biology and the foundational principles governing life cycles.
E N D
Asexual Reproduction • Fission • Budding • Fragmentation & Regeneration
Interphase • G1 = Growth • S = DNA Replication • G2 = Growth • Centrioles with asters
Prophase • Chromatin to chromosomes • Nucleus and Nucleolus disappear • Chromosomes • Two chromatids with centromere • Kinetochore • Spindle apparatus
Metaphase • Centrosomes at opposite poles • Chromosomes line up on metaphase plate
Anaphase • Chromosomes pulled apart – become daughter chromosomes
Telophase and Cytokinesis • Reverse of Prophase • Cytokinesis • Animal cells • Cleavage Furrow • Plant cells • Cell Plate
Messages • Internal Signals • Kinetochores • External Signals • Growth Factor • Density-dependent inhibition • (contact inhibition) • Anchorage dependence
Cancer • Transformation • Tumor • Benign • Malignant • Metastasis
Sexual Sources of Variation • Crossing Over • Independent Assortment • Random Fertilization • Mutations
