  • Living organisms have life cycles.
  • Life cycles begin with organisms formation,
    followed by growth and development and end in
    death.

3
  • Individual cells have life cycles.
  • Some cells constantly complete the cycle, others
    take 16-20 hours or longer.
  • Cell cycle is broken down into sections

4
Interphase
  • The longest part of a cells life cycle
  • Several major things occur during Interphase
  • The cell grows, develops.
  • Organelles are duplicated.
  • The DNA is copied (chromosomes duplicated)
  • The cell prepares for cell division.
  • Interphase is NOT part of mitosis.

5
Interphase
6
  • In Interphase, chromatids are duplicated.
  • When the nucleus is ready to divide, each
    duplicated chromosome coils into two thickened
    strands called chromatids.

7
Mitosis
  • Mitosis process in which the nucleus divides to
    form two identical nuclei.
  • Steps of Mitosis Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase,
    and Telophase. (PMAT)

8
Prophase (Prepare)
  • First step of mitosis
  • Chromatids are fully visible under a microscope
  • Nucleolus and nuclear membrane disintegrate
  • Two organelles called centrioles move to
    opposite ends in the cell.
  • Between the centrioles, (only in animal cells)
    thin threadlike structures called spindle fibers
    begin to stretch across the cell.

9
Metaphase (Middle)
  • The chromosomes line up across the midline of the
    cell.
  • The centromere of each chromosome becomes
    attached to the spindle fibers.

10
Anaphase (Apart)
  • The centromere, in the center of each pair of
    chromatids, splits in half.
  • The spindle fibers shorten, pulling the pair of
    chromatids apart.
  • Each pair of chromatids separate, and move to
    opposite ends of the cell.

11
Telophase (Two nuclei form)
  • Spindle fibers disappear.
  • Nuclear membrane reappears.
  • Chromosomes begin to uncoil and a new nucleus
    forms.

12
Cytokinesis
  • Division of the cytoplasm
  • In animal cells the cell membrane pinches in
    the middle.
  • In plant cells a cell plate forms followed by
    the formation of new cell walls .
  • Then cells enter into Interphase to repeat the
    cell cycle again.

Cytokinesis
Animal Cell
Why doesnt a plant cell pinch in at the sides
like an animal cell?

Results of Mitosis
  • Mitosis is the division of a nucleus.
  • The process produces two new nuclei that are
    identical to each other and to the original
    nucleus.

16
Why does mitosis happen?
  • Mitosis allows for
  • Growth
  • Replacement of worn out or damaged cells
  • In some organisms, it is used to produce new
    organisms

17
Asexual Reproduction
  • A new organism is produced from one organism.
  • The new organism has exactly the same hereditary
    material as the parent organism.

Prokaryotic organisms cannot undergo mitosis
(they have no nucleus) They reproduce asexually
using fission
