cytoplasm divides
cytokinesis
stages of mitosis
1) Prophase
2) Metaphase
3) Anaphase
4) Telophase
5) Cytokinesis
stages of interphase
1) G1-phase
2) S-phase
3) G2-phase
G1-phase
growth phase, 1 copy of each chromosome
S-phase
DNA is duplicated (2 sister chromatids)
prophase (mitosis)
1) DNA coils tightly - chromosomes shorten and thicken
2) microtubules assemble to form mitotic spindle
3) nuclear envelope disappears
metaphase (mitosis)
1) chromosomes attach to the spindle
2) chromosomes align in center of all - metaphase plate
3) each sister chromatid attached to opposite pole
anaphase (mitosis)
1) sister chromatids separate and move to opposite poles
2) sister chromatids become individual chromosomes
telophase (mitosis)
1) cells look like dumbell - chromosomes at both ends
2) spindle falls apart
3) nuclear envelope re-forms
cytokinesis (mitosis)
1) cytoplasm is divided
2) cell is pinched in middle
3) 1 cell is now2
structure made up of microtubules
mitotic sprindle
23 chromosomes
haploid
46 chromosomes
diploid
mitosis
makes 2 identical cells
basis of asexual reproduction and multicellularity
meiosis
makes 4 haploid cells from 1 diploid pre-meiotic cell
basis of sexual reproduction
Interphase I
1) Chromosomes duplicate
2) duplicated chromosomes - 2 sister chromatids attached at centromere
Prophase I
1) larger, more complex than in mitosis
2) chromosomes condense
3) synapsis - homologous chromosomes pair up
4) crossing over - homologous chromosomes exchange parts
5) nuclear envelope disappears
leptonema/leptoene stage
replicated chromosomes become visible s threads and chromomeres
zygotema/zygotene stage
active pairing/synapsis
pachynema/pachyteme stage
homologous chromosomes shorten and thicken, chromosomes synapse and crossing over occurs (diplotene chiasmata)
diakenises
condensation complete, attachment to spindle, nuclear envelope disappears
Metaphase I
1) homologous pairs of chromosomes align on metaphase plate
2) the chromosomes of the homologous pair are attached to opposite poles
Anaphase I
1) homologues separate and are moved to opposite poles by the spindle
2) sister chromatids remain attached at centromere
Telophase I and Cytokinesis
1) spindle apparatus moves chromosomes to opposite poles
2) haploid set of chromosomes/2sister chromatids
3) cytokinesis
4) --> meiosis 2
Prophase II
1) mitotic spindle forms
2) chromosomes are condensed
Metaphase II
1) individual chromosomes align on metaphase plate
2) sister chromatids are attached at opposite poles
Anaphase II
1) sister chromatids separate at their centromeres
2) sister chromatids move to opposite poles of the cell
3) following separation, sister chromatids become individual chromosomes
Telophase II and Cytokinesis
1) Nuclei form at opposite poles of the cell
2) cytokinesis occurs to form 4 daughter cells
euchromatin
chromatin or chromosomal regions That are lightly staining and are relatively uncoiled during the interphase portion of the cell cycle. Euchromatic regions contain most of the structural genes.
Heterochromatin
The heavily staining, late-replicating regions of chromosomes that are condensed in interphase. Thought to be devoid of structural genes
