Cell Division Chapter 10
10.1 Cell Growth, Division, and Reproduction Key Questions: What are some of the difficulties a cell faces as it increases in size? How do asexual and sexual reproduction compare? Vocab Cell division Sexual reproduction Asexual reproduction
What are some of the difficulties a cell faces as it increases in size? Information overload All critical info is stored in DNA As the cell grows, that info is used build the molecules needed As the cell increases, the amount of DNA does not! If the cell continues to grow there will be a lack of information
Limit to cell size (continued..) Exchanging materials: The cell needs food, O2, water and other “goods” The cell must get rid of wastes These pass through the membrane Facts to remember: The rate of the “exchange” = surface area area= L x W The rate that food and O2 are used = Volume Volume = L x W x H
“Surface to Volume Ratio”
How do sexual and asexual reproduction compare? The production of a genetically identical offspring form a single parent simple efficient effective
Examples of Asexual reproduction
Sexual reproduction -Offspring produced by sexual reproduction inherit some of their genetic information from each parent.
Asexual vs. Sexual reproduction “survival” tactic Quicker you multiply the better you last! Genetically identity works as long as the environment stays the same Sexual: Takes longer Genetic diversity Diversity increased ability to survive in changing environment
10.2 The process of Cell Division Key questions: -What is the role of chromosomes in cell division? - What are the main events of the Cell Cycle? -How do daughter cells split apart after Mitosis?
Vocab Vocab: Chromosome Chromatin Interphase Cell cycle Mitosis Cytokinesis Prophase Centromere Chromatid Centriole Metaphase Anaphase Telophase
What is the role of Chromosomes in Cell Division? -genetic information bundled into packages of DNA
What is the role of Chromosomes in Cell Division? Chromosomes help to separate and package DNA precisely during dell division
Chromatin: -DNA, histones within the nucleus
The cell Cycle What are the main events of the Cell Cycle? -a cell grows -a cell prepares for division -a cell divides
Prokaryotic Cell Cycle (Binary Fission)
Eukaryotic Cell Cycle
Cell Cycle (continued...) 2 main phases: Interphase (in-between) Cell Division
Cell Cycle Interphase: M Phase: G1: cell growth S: DNA replication G2: preparation for M-phase M Phase: Mitosis: division of cell nucleus Cytokinesis: division of cytoplasm
Mitosis real life mitosis A GREAT Mitosis Video Prophase - 1st phase -Takes the longest -50-60% of the time -Genetic material condenses and duplicates -begins spindle forming (centriole)
Mitosis Metaphase -2nd phase -nuclear envelope dissolves -chromosomes line up in cell -spindles connect to each centromere
Mitosis Anaphase -chromatids separate -move towards opposite side of cell
Mitosis Telophase: -final phase -chromosomes untangle -Nuclear envelope re-forms
Cytokenesis
From interphase to cytokinesis
10.3 Regulating Cell cycle Key Questions Vocab How is the cell cycle regulated? How do cancer cells differ from other cells? Vocab Cyclin Growth factor Apoptosis Cancer tumor
How is the cell cycle regulated? Cyclins -discovered 1980’s -protein that seems to regulate cell cycle -start the process Regulating proteins Internal Regulators Control factors within the cell itself Making sure phases don’t start till one has finished External Regulators control of the cell from outside controls the rate of division Wound healing is great example
Cell regulation (continued..) Apoptosis: -Process of programmed cell death.
