Presentation Transcript

  1. Mitosis

  2. What is Mitosis? • Mitosis: Cell division involving somatic (non-sex) cells • Involves only diploid cells • Form of asexual reproduction for some life (bacteria & protista, fungi) • End Result: Two genetically identical “daughter cells”

  3. The Cell Cycle • Defined: Repeating set of events in the life of a cell • 1) Interphase • G1, S, G2 • 2) Prophase • 3) Metaphase • 4) Anaphase • 5) Telophase

  4. Interphase • Divided into 3 Stages: • G1 Stage • Normal function performed • Cell growth • Organelles created • S Stage • Chromatin (DNA strands) duplicated • G2 Stage • Cell growth • Normal function performed

  5. Prophase • 1st Mitosis Stage • Chromatin (DNA strands) coils into chromosomes • Nucleus dissolves spilling the chromosomes • Spindle fibers form

  6. Metaphase • 2nd stage of mitosis • Spindle fibers attach to centromeres of each chromosome • Spindle fibers pull the chromosomes to the cell’s equator

  7. Anaphase • 3rd stage of mitosis • Spindle fibers pull ½ the chromatids to each end of the cell

  8. Telophase • 4th stage of mitosis • Spindle fibers dissolve • Chromatids unwind into chromatin • Nucleus reforms • Cytokinesis occurs

  9. Cytokinesis • Defined: Dividing of the cytoplasm • In animals: Cell pinches inward • In plants: Cell plate begins to separate the two new cells

  18. Quick Review • Mitosis = the division of somatic (non-sex) cells • Each stage has different characteristics • End Result = Two identical diploid cells
