Stage 1

Interphase

Stage 2

MITOSIS

Stage 3

CYTOKINESIS

What happens in stage 1

•The cell grows to its full size.

•Produces structures it needs.


•Ex. - cell makes new ribosomes and produces enzymes. • Makes an exact copy of DNA in its nucleus. • DNA is found in the chromatin in thenucleus. • DNA contains all the information the cellneeds.

What happens in stage 2

• Nucleus divides into two nuclei.

•One copy of DNA is distributed to each of the twodaughter cells.


• Divided into 4 phases:


•Prophase


• Metaphase


• Anaphase


•Telophase

What happens in stage 3

• Cytoplasm divides and organelles are divided.•In animal cells, cell membrane pinches in themiddle of the cell to form two new cells.

•In plant cells, cell plate forms in the middle of thecell. Plate forms new cell membranes and cellwall forms around membranes.

Mitosis stages

Prophase,Metaphase,Anaphase, and Telophase

Mistosis:Prophase

• Chromatin condenses to form chromosomes.

• Centrioles move to opposite ends of the cell.•Spindle fibers form bridge.


• Nuclear envelope breaks down.

Mistosis:Metaphase

• Chromosomes line up across the center of the cell.

• Chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers.

Mistosis:Anaphase

•The two chromatids split and move to opposite endsof the cell.

• Cell stretches out as ends are pushed out.

Mistosis:Telophase

• Chromosomes stretch out and lose rodlikeappearance.

• New nuclear envelope forms.

A DNA strand looks like a....

Twisted ladder

Put the events of replication in order.

1. The DNA strand unwinds.


2. The DNA strand unzips.


3. The nitrogen bases floating in the nucleus attach to their pair.


4.The DNA becomes two exact strands

A rung of a DNA strand is made up of....

A pair of Nitrogen Bases

In this phase the nuclear envelope breaks down.

Prophase

In this phase the chromosomes stretch out and the nuclear envelope forms around the nuclear region.

Telophase

In this phase the centromere splits and the chromatids move to opposite ends of the cell.

Anaphase

In this phase the chromatin condenses to form rod like structures called chromosomes.

Prophase

In this phase the chromosomes line up in the center of the cell and attach to spindle fibers.

Metaphase

DNA Replication

the process by which a cell makes an exact copy of its DNA.
What are chromatids?

Identical strands of chromosomes

What forms around the chromatids during mitosis?

Two new nuclei

What is copied during replication?

the cells DNA

During what stage of the cell cycle does replication occur?

Interphase

A cell makes a copy of its DNA during the stage of the cell cycle called mitosis.
