Somatic cell-
From the
body of organisms
Somatic cell
maintain
life processes
Reproductive cell
is a production of
offspring
Eggs and sperm cell are known as
gametes
Cell cycle
is a
life
of a cell
Cell
cycle
from its origin in the division of
parent cell
until its own division into
two cells
Why do cells divide?
Asexual reproduction, growth, renewal and pair
What are the cell cycle
stages
?
Gap 1, S Phase, Gap 2
Mitotic phase involves in
karyokinesis
Mitosis
is a duplicate of the cell cycle, where the cell divides into
two
identical cells.
Cytokinesis
: the cytoplasmic division of a cell at the end of mitosis or meiosis, bringing about the separation into two daughter cells.
G1
phase: cell grows and carries out normal metabolism; organelles
duplicate
G1
phase: The cell larges and there is a synthesis of proteins
S phase
: Growth and DNA replication are the 2 stage.
S phase
:
DNA replication
and
chromosome duplication
G2
: Cell grows and
prepares
for mitosis
G2 phase
: Characterized by growth and preparation in mitosis
G0:
Cell
will leave the
cycle
and quit dividing
G0
:
Centrioles
separate into
two pairs
G0:
Proteins
required for
mitosis
are synthesized
G0
:
RNA
required to direct protein synthesis necessary for mitosis is synthesized
Prophase
:
Condensation
of
chromosomes
Prophase
; Disappearance of
nuclear
membrane
Prophase
: Movement of the centrioles on the opposite poles
Prophase
: Chromatin thickens into chromosomes
Prophase
: Centriole pairs move to
opposite
ends of the cell
Prophase
:
Spindle fibers
begin to form
Early
prophase
: The cell starts to break down some structures and build others up.
Early
prophase
: Setting the stage for division of the chromosomes.
Late
prophase
: The nuclear envelope breaks down and the chromosomes are fully condensed.
Late
prophase
: Mitotic spindle grows and the microtubules grows more
Metaphase
: Chromosomes align along the
metaphase
plate
Metaphase
: Chromosomes attached to the spindle through
kinetochores
Anaphase
: Paired chromosomes separate and move
opposite
sides of the cell
Anaphase
: Separation of centromeres
Anaphase
: Separated chromosomes are called
daughter
chromosomes
Early
anaphase
: The chromatids abruptly separate and move towards the spindle poles
Late
anaphase
: the spindle poles move apart as interpolar microtubules elongate and slide past one another
Nondisjunction
: They do not
separate
Nondisjunction
: After division, there are more
chromosome
in one cell than the other
