  • Cell division - It's the process by which a cell divides to form two new
    cells
  • Binary fission - Divides forming two new identical cells
  • Mitosis - Cell or organism growth
    Replacement or repair of damaged cells
  • Meiosis - formation of sex cells, or gametes
  • DNA Replication - DNA is copied resulting into two identical chromosomes
  • Chromosome Segregation - Chromosomes separate and move towards ends (poles) of cell
  • Cytokinesis (Separation) - Cytoplasm divides forming two (2) cells
  • Eukaryotic cell division - Cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent cell
  • Eukaryotic cell division cont. - Cell division that results in four daughter cells
  • Cell cycle
    The sequence of events from the time a cell first arises as a result of cell division
    until the time when that cell itself divides.
    Arise - Divide
    Cell after division begins a new cycle
  • Interphase
    period of growth and DNA
    replication between cell divisions
  • G1 Phase
    Cell increases in size
  • S Phase
    Replication of DNA - Two sister strands of DNA called chromatids are produced
  • G2 Phase
    Organelles double
    New cytoplasm forms
    All other structures needed for mitosis form
  • Early prophase
    Chromatids condense becoming chromosomes
     Nucleolus disappears 
    Centrioles separate and start moving to opposite ends of the cell
    Spindle begins to form
  • Late prophase
    The nuclear membrane fragments and the microtubules invade the nuclear area
    Centrioles have moved to the opposite poles 
    The spindle is completely formed 
  • Metaphase
    The chromosomes are aligned
    at the metaphase plate 
    Centrioles move at polar ends and projects spindle fibers to connect each chromosome
  • Anaphase
    The paired chromosomes (sister chromatids) separate 
    Separated chromatids move to opposite pole
    Partial division of cytoplasm begins 
  • Telophase
    Chromosomes are at the poles 
    Chromosomes uncoil-turn chromatin
    Nuclear envelops reforms
    Spindle fiber disappear 
  • Cytokinesis 
    Occurs at the end of mitosis
