CELL CYCLE
|
Process in which on cell
divides to produce two identical cells. |
|
CELL CYCLE
PHASES |
G1, G0, S, G2, M
|
|
CELL CYCLE
PHASE 1 G1 PHASE |
Cell growth after division.
Synthesizing new RNA and protein molecules. |
|
CELL CYCLE
PHASE 2 G0 PHASE |
Cells that leave the cycle
and never make it to the "S" phase. Become specialized cells (brain cells, heart cells, adult nerve cells, eurythrocytes) |
|
CELL CYCLE
PHASE 3 S PHASE |
REPLICATION- Exact copying
of the DNA and chromisomes for each new offspring cell. Centrioles also replicate (3 to 6 hrs). |
|
CELL CYCLE
PHASE 4 G2 PHASE |
Advanced growth stage.
|
|
CELL CYCLE
PHASE 5 M PHASE |
MITOSIS- Nuclear division.
Produces two identical Nuclei. (see "mitosis" card) |
|
TRIGGER
PROTEIN |
Specialized protein that
determines how quickly a cell matures and when it divides. Formed in G1 Influenced by hormone levels Factor in healing |
|
MITOSIS
|
(M phase) Cell division.
One parent cell divides to create two identical daughter cells. (stages- IPMAT) Chromisome replication occurs in parent cell. |
|
HOMOLOGOUS
PAIR |
A pair of chromisomes with
similar features. (one from mom- one from dad) |
|
5 STAGES OF
MITOSIS |
IPMAT
|
|
IPMAT 1
INTERPHASE |
(G1, S, G2) genetic material
in the form of chromatin (thread-like in the nucleus) |
|
IPMAT 2
PROPHASE |
Nuclear membrane
breaks down Chromosomes thicken and become visible Spindle fibers, astrioles and centrioles become visible. |
|
IPMAT 3
METAPHASE |
-Chromosomes line up
at the equator -centrioles and asters allign to the poles -spindle fibers attach |
|
IPMAT 4
ANAPHASE |
-chromosomes
(combined chromatids) pull apart, and become chromosomes. -cell membrane pushes in |
|
IPMAT 5
TELOPHASE |
-reverse of prophase
-cell continues division |
|
USES OF
MITOSIS-1 |
growth, development,
repair and replacement |
|
USES OF
MITOSIS-2 |
asexual reproduction
in single-celled organisms |
|
USES OF
MITOSIS-3 |
occurs in skin and
blood cells, tips of roots, stems and limbs |
|
USES OF
MITOSIS-4 |
Genetic continuity
--same number and type of chromosomes |
|
TYPES OF
REPRODUCTION |
Asexual
Sexual |
|
ASEXUAL
REPRODUCTION |
one cell produces identical
cells by itself (Mitosis)- Diploid = Diploid +Diploid |
|
SEXUAL
REPRODUCTION |
Uniting of sexual material
from cells of two parents to produce an offspring (Meiosis)- Haploid + Haploid = Diploid |
|
DIPLOID
CELL |
cell that contains
chromosomes in pairs |
|
HAPLOID
CELL |
cell that contains one
chromosome from each pair |
|
MEIOSIS
|
cell division that
produces gametes |
|
MEIOSIS PHASE 1
INTERPHASE1 |
chromatin
replication occurs |
|
MEIOSIS PHASE 2
PROPHASE1 |
-each chromosome
consists of two chromatids -Synapsis- homologous pairs move together to form a tetrad (4 chromatids total) -crossing over- H.P.s wrap around, break off and exchange genes. (genetic variation) |
|
STRUCTURE THAT HOLDS
TWO IDENTICAL CHROMATIDS TOGETHER IN A DIVIDING CELL |
centromere
|
|
TWO IDENTICAL
CHROMOSOMES WITHIN A CELL |
chromatids
