1. Chapter 12: The Cell Cycle Tomorrow Pre-lab – Mitosis only (NOT meiosis – Lab 3) Mitosis lab (Make-up is Thursday 7:30 AM)b turn in notebooks at end (Have respiration lab finished!!)

2. 1.When is cell division important? -Reproduction – unicellular organisms – binary fission in bacteria -Growth & development from fertilized egg -Repair (& replacement) of damaged cells Chapter 12: The Cell Cycle 20 µm 100 µm 200 µm (a) Reproduction. An amoeba, a single-celled eukaryote, is dividing into two cells. Each new cell will be an individual organism (LM). (b) Growth and development. This micrograph shows a sand dollar embryo shortly after the fertilized egg divided, forming two cells (LM). (c) Tissue renewal. These dividing bone marrow cells (arrow) will give rise to new blood cells (LM).

3. 1.When is cell division important? 2.What is an organism’s genome? -Total hereditary endowment in the cell of a species -Nuclear & extra-nuclear (mito & chloro) 3.How many chromosomes do we have? -46 – somatic cell (cells of the body) -2n -diploid -23 – gamete (sex cells – sperm & egg) -n-n -haploid 4.What are chromosomes made of? -Chromatin -DNA & proteins Chapter 12: The Cell Cycle

4. 0.5 µm Chromosome duplication (including DNA synthesis) Centromere Separation of sister chromatids Sister chromatids Centrometers Sister chromatids A eukaryotic cell has multiple chromosomes, one of which is represented here. Before duplication, each chromosome has a single DNA molecule. Once duplicated, a chromosome consists of two sister chromatids connected at the centromere. Each chromatid contains a copy of the DNA molecule. Mechanical processes separate the sister chromatids into two chromosomes and distribute them to two daughter cells.

13. Figure 12.15 The G 1 checkpoint G 1 checkpoint G1G1 G1G1 G0G0 (a) If a cell receives a go-ahead signal at the G 1 checkpoint, the cell continues on in the cell cycle. (b) If a cell does not receive a go-ahead signal at the G 1 checkpoint, the cell exits the cell cycle and goes into G 0, a nondividing state. Most functioning cells are in G 0

15. Accumulated cyclin molecules combine with recycled Cdk mol- ecules, producing enough molecules of MPF to pass the G 2 checkpoint and initiate the events of mitosis. MPF promotes mitosis by phosphorylating various proteins. MPF‘s activity peaks during metaphase. 3 During G 1, conditions in the cell favor degradation of cyclin, and the Cdk component of MPF is recycled. 5 During anaphase, the cyclin component of MPF is degraded, terminating the M phase. The cell enters the G 1 phase. 4 2 Synthesis of cyclin begins in late S phase and continues through G 2. Because cyclin is protected from degradation during this stage, it accumulates. 1 Cdk G 2 checkpoint Cyclin MPF Cyclin is degraded Degraded Cyclin G1G1 G2G2 S M G1G1 G1G1 S G2G2 G2G2 S M M MPF activity Cyclin Time (a) Fluctuation of MPF activity and cyclin concentration during the cell cycle (b) Molecular mechanisms that help regulate the cell cycle Relative Concentration Fig. 12.16 Molecular control of the cell cycle at the G2 checkpoint
