Mitosis

Prophase


Metaphase


Anaphase


Telophase

Prophase

Nucleus disassembles: nucleolus disappear, chromatin condenses into chromosomes, and nuclear envelope breaks down

Metaphase

Chromosomes line up single file at center


Each chromatid is complete with a centromere and a kinetochore, once separated, it is a chromosome


*to keep track of total: count centromeres!


Anaphase

Microtubles shorten, each chromosome is pulled apart intro two chromatids (Once separated it is a chromosome; #chromosome doubles

Telophase

Nuclear division, nuclear envelop develops, chromosomes ==> chromatin, nucleoli reappear

Cytokinesis

Beings during end of anaphase; Division of cytoplasm to form 2 cells

Cleavage furrow

actin and myosin microfilaments shorten, pull plasma membrane into center (animal)

Cell plate

vesicles from Golgi bodies migrate and fuse to form cell plate


Cells dont actually separate from each other, middle lamella cements adjacent cells together

Interphase

begins after mitosis and cytokinesis are complete and consists G1, S and G2 phase

Cell Cycle

M, G1, S, G2 Phase


During S phase, second molecule of DNA replicated from the first provides sister chromatids


Growth occurs in all 3 interphases, not jst G's

Checkpoints

Near the end of G1- cell growth assessed and favorable conditions checked. If fails, cell enters G0


End of G2 - checks for sufficient Mitosis Promoting Factor levels to proceed


M checkpoint during mitosis that triggers start of G1

Meiosis I

a reduction division


homologous chromosomes pair at plate, migrate to opposite poles (no separation of sister chromatids)

Prophase I

nucleus disassembles; nucleolus disappears and nuclear envelop breaks down, chromatin condenses, spindle develops

Metaphase I

Microtubules attached to kinectochores of one member of each homologous pair. Microtubles from other site attach to 2nd member of pair

Anaphase I

homologues within tetrads uncouple and pulled to opposite sides (disjunction)

Telophase I

nuclear membrane develops. Each pole forms a new nucleus that has half number of chromosomes (from homologous pair to each chromosome = 2 sister chromatids

Synapsis

homologous chromosomes pair up. These pairs refrerred to as TETRADS (group of 4 chromatids)

Chiasmata

region where crossing over occur of non-sister chromatids

Meiosis II

Chromosomes spread across metaphase plate and sister chromatids separate and migrate to opposite poles (similar to mitosis)

Prophase II

nuclear envelop disappears and spindle develops etc. no chiasmata and no crossing over

Metaphase II

chromosomes align on plate like in mitosis but now with half number of chromosomes (no extra copy)

Anaphase II

each chromosome is pulled into 2 separate chromatids and migrate to opposite poles of cell

Telophase II

nuclear envelope reappears and cytokinesis occurs


4 haploid cells (each chromosome = 1 chromatid)

Mitosis/Meiosis

Mitosis in somatic cells


Meiosis in gametes (egg, sperm, pollen)

In plants

Meiosis in sporangia --> produces spores (haploid)


Spores undergoes mitosis to become multicellular (Gametophyte) which are haploid(n) since spores are already haploid

Sporophyte

gametes fuse and produce a diploid cell (zygote 2n) that grows by mitosis to become sporophyte


Cells in sporophyte(sporangia) undergoes meisosis to rpoduce haploid spores which germinate and repeat life cycle

Alternation of generations

Alternation of diploid and haploid stages
