16. Like Begets Like  Cell theory states that ‘cells come from pre-existing cells’ (Rudolf Virchow 1858)  Some organisms create identical offspring – through asexual reproduction  Some organisms create similar, but not identical offspring – through sexual reproduction  Reproduction on the cellular level is called cell division.

17. Prokaryotic vs Eukaryotic Cells  Remember that prokaryotic cells are:  Smaller than Eukaryotic Cells  Simpler than Eukaryotic Cells  It turns out that their DNA is also:  Shorter than Eukaryotic Cells  3,000 vs 300,000 genes long  Organized into only 1 strand, while Eukaryotic cells its organized into many  1 chromosome in a bacterium vs 46 in a human

18. A closer look at Eukaryotic DNA throughout the life of the cell…  Day-to-day the DNA is coiled around histone proteins into threads called chromatin.  Before dividing the DNA replicates (makes an identical copy of itself). The copy attaches to the original forming somewhat of an X like structure. These are called chromatids.  When dividing the DNA coils even further into short rods called chromosomes. These are so dense they can be easily seen through a microscope.

19. G1 S G2 M phase

20. S phase G1 phase G2 phase

21. Growth (Interphase)  G1: Gap 1  Cell grows bigger and makes proteins needed for life.  S Phase: DNA Synthesis  During the S phase, the cell replicates its DNA.  G2: Gap 2  Cell grows even bigger and makes proteins needed for two cells!

22.  Cells can live their entire life growing. An example of this is nerve cells in humans. They never progress past this part of the cell cycle.  Most cells, though, will divide (reproduce) at some point. Why would cells divide?  Survival (they have become too big)  DNA overload  Cell Transport overload  Benefit of the larger organism  Grow  Heal  If a cell is going to divide it will continue through this sequence… Not in notes – jot down what you think is important

23. Division of a Prokaryotic Cell  Called Binary Fission  Chromosomes segregate (move to opposite sides of the cell)  Cell elongates and divides

24. Division of an Eukaryotic Cell  There are 2 stages to Division:  Division of the DNA (MITOSIS) 1. Prophase 2. Prometaphase 3. Metaphase 4. Anaphase 5. Telophase  Division of the cytoplasm (CYTOKINESIS)

25. Prophase  Think Prepare -  The DNA coils into chromosomes.  Now visible by microscope  Centrioles and spindle fibers take their places This is a picture of a cell in prophase.

26. Prometaphase  Think Prepare for Metaphase  Spindle fibers attach to kinetochore  Nuclear envelope disappears

27. Metaphase  Think Middle -  Chromosomes line up at the center of the cell.  Chromosomes line up at metaphase plate equidistant between two poles. This is a picture of a cell in metaphase.

28. Anaphase  Think - apart  Each centromere divides.  Motor proteins of kinetochores walk daughter chromosomes towards opposite poles  Sister chromatids separate and move apart. This is a picture of a cell in anaphase.

29. Telophase/Cytokinesis  Think - two  Two nuclear membrane are formed  Chromosomes uncoil  Mitotic spindles disappear  Nucleoli reappear  Cytokinesis  Division of cytoplasm This is a picture of a cell in telophase. This is a picture of a cell in cytokinesis.

31. Cytokinesis in Animal Cells Cell’s membrane pinches inward until the two sides touch resulting in two separate daughter cells.

32. Cytokinesis in Plant Cells Cell’s membrane CAN NOT pinch inward because of the rigid cell wall. Instead, a cell plate forms between the two nuclei and slowly grows into a new wall separating the two daughter cells

35. Cancer  Cancer starts in one cell with one mutation. This mutation causes the cell to ‘cycle’ faster than it should.  Over time – additional mutations occur in the cell. These mutations cause the cell to ‘cycle’ even faster – essentially the cell loses control!

36. Cancer  Mutations can be –  Inherited from your parents  Random  Caused by chemicals / environmental factors (carcinogens / mutagens)  Cigarette smoke  Chewing tobacco  Asbestos  UV light  X-rays

37. Cancer  Mutations that cause cancer are specific – they must affect the speed of the cell cycle and its survival!  Proto-oncogenes mutate to oncogenes (fast forward)  Tumor suppressor genes mutate to stop working (breaks fail)  Angiogenesis genes are mutated to become active (unlimited food)  P53 gene is mutated to stop working (immortal)  Various genes mutate to allow metastasis (cells spread)  Most cancers are caused by 5-10 mutations. Cancer is a disease of multiple mutations in one cell.
