Cell Reproduction and Division Ch 8. Chromosomes. Chromosome : DNA wrapped up w/ histones (proteins) = organized Chromatin : uncoiled chromosome= unorganized DNA. Chromosome #. All species have their own characteristic # of chromosomes in each cell. Chromosome Number.

Chromosomes • Chromosome: DNA wrapped up w/ histones (proteins) = organized • Chromatin: uncoiled chromosome= unorganized DNA
Chromosome # • All species have their own characteristic # of chromosomes in each cell
Chromosome Number • Diploid 2n: pairs of chromosomes (1 from each parent • Haploid 1n: unpaired chromosomes (sperm or egg)
Chromosome Terminology Centromere 1 Chromosome With 2 chromatids (duplicated) 1 Chromosome Centromere 2 chromosomes (both duplicated) If these are homologous it is a tetrad 2 chromosomes (Unduplicated)
Chromosome Types SEX CHROMOSOMES Determine Gender • Males: XY • Females: XX • Male determines gender of the baby AUTOSOMES • All non-sex chromosomes
How many C’somes do you have? • Humans: 23 pair = 46 chromosomes • Karyotype: arrangement of an individuals chromosomes
Homologous Chromosomes • Have the same type of information but with different details • #2 from mom has same kind of info as #2 from dad • Which ones aren’t homologous?
Cell Division in Prokaryotes • Binary Fission-Bacterial Cells reproduce asexually
Mitosis & Cell Division In Eukaryotes • When a cell gets too big, it divides or stops growing • Eukaryotes first divide nucleus =Mitosis, then divide the rest =cytokinesis
Cell Cycle • A cells life is divided into a cycle • Interphase, Mitosis & Cytokinesis are steps in the cycle
Stages of the cell cycle • INTERPHASE = most active & majority of time • G1 stage = "GAP 1” - intense growth • Sstage = "Synthesis” • DNA replication occurs-IT DOUBLES! • G2 stage = "GAP 2” - duplicate organelles • G0 stage = exit cycle & never divide again (CNS=nerve cells) • MITOSIS • M stage = mitosis - nucleus divides • Divided into PMAT • Cytokinesis= cell divides
Interphase • The cell is metabolizing, growing and preparing for mitosis • Chromosomes are not clearly seen • Where a cell spends most of its life
Controlling the Cell Cycle • Length varies • 3 checkpoints based on proteins • G1, G2 and Mitosis • Errors can lead to cancer. • In cancer, regulation of the cell cycle is lost • Normal cell growth & behavior is lost.
What is Mitosis? • Nuclear division • Produces two identical daughter cells during prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase (PMAT).
Prophase= PREPARE for division, chromosome PRESENT • Chromatin begins to condense and c’some becomes visible. • Spindle fibers form
Prophase (cont.) • Nuclear membrane dissolves • Microtubules form mitotic spindle • Kinetochore fibers and polar fibers attach to centromeres
Metaphase-in MIDDLE • Spindle fibers align the chromosomes in the center or equator of the cell • Helps to ensure each new nucleus will receive one copy of each chromosome.
Anaphase-Chromatids APART • Chromatids separate and move to opposite sides • Spindle fibers break down • Once separate they are called chromosomes
Telophase-almost TWO cells • Chromosomes arrive at opposite poles • Nuclear envelope re-forms around daughter nuclei. • Chromosomes uncoil • Spindles disappear
Cytokinesis in Animal Cells • Cytoplasm is pinched (cleavage furrow) into two daughter cells
Plants • In plant cells, the rigid wall requires that a cell plate be synthesized between the two daughter cells.
Sexual Reproduction • Sex cells divide by meiosis to produce haploid gamete (half the number of chromosomes) • Gametes will join & fertilize • Meiosis produces 4 gametes that are slightly different in genetic makeup from each other • Two gametes join to form 1zygote
Meiosis IReduces number of chromosomes by half (diploid to haploid) PMAT I’s – separate homologous pairs • Meiosis II: Separates the sister chromatids PMAT II’s
Prophase I: • Synapsis (pairing of homologous c’somes) • When crossing-over happens (genetic recombination)
Crossing over: during Meiosis I Homologous pairs form tetrads, cross over and separate into individual chromosomes • Homologous c’somes exchange genetic material • Important for genetic diversity
Prophase I Each tetrad has two chromo- somes & four chromatids
Meiosis • Spermatogenesis: production of sperm cells • Oogenesis: production of egg cells
Comparing Meiosis & Mitosis Genetic identity of progeny • Meiosis • Daughter cells have new assortment of parental chromosomes • Chromatids not identical; crossing over • Diploid to haploid • 1 cell 4 • Mitosis • Identical daughter cells • diploid • 1 cell 2
Sexual Reproduction • Formation of offspring through meiosis and the union of a sperm and an egg (zygote) • Offspring are genetically different from parents
Independent Assortment • Anaphase I – homologous chromosomes separate from each other • Mendel figured this out
