  1. The Importance of Mitosis

  2. The need to heal!

  3. The need to grow!

  4. DNA • Made of nucleotides • Phosphate • sugar • Nitrogen base • Adenine • Guanine • Cytosine • thymine

  5. Coiling • Uncoiled DNA called chromatin- between cell divisions • Happens during cell division • DNA wraps tightly around proteins called histones

  6. Chromosomes • Chromosome- consists of two identical halves connected together by a cnetromere • Chromatid- a half of one chromosome. • Contains one complete set of information • Copies itself to make the other chromatid

  7. How many chromosomes?? • Each human diploid cell is 2N and contains 46 total • 23 identical pairs ( 23 x 2 = 46 ) “homologous chromosomes” carry the same traits

  8. How many chromosomes?? • Egg and sperm cells only carry one set of 23 • Each human haploid cell is “N” • Egg and sperm combine to form 2N or 46 • All other chromosomes are called autosomes • Each human or animal cell has sex chromosomes XX or XY • Define the sex of the organism

  9. Cell Cycle • G1 = cell grows • S = DNA replication • G2= Prepare to divide • M= Mitosis INTERPHASE

  10. 2-4-8-16, etc… Quicktime video

  11. Stages of Mitosis • Prophase • Metaphase • Anaphase • Telophase • Cytokinesis

  12. Birth of a Brain Cell • Quicktime movie
