1. Bell Ringer 1.Why do cells need to divide in multicellular organisms? 2.What is the difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes with regard to chromosomes? 3.What does a human chromosome consist of? Draw one! Label. 4.Describe a role of chromatin in chromosome in your own words.

2. DNA and Chromosomes Chromatin Histones DN A The function of chromatin is to efficiently package DNA

3. Cell Cycle Cell Cycle is a sequence of events through which a cell progresses during its lifetime

4. Cell can be either in dividing (Mitotic Phase) or non-dividing state (Interphase)

6. Interphase about 90% of the cell cycle

8. G1 Phase (Gap 1): Cell Growth Protein Synthesis Cell Metabolism Preparation for S Phase

9. S Phase (synthesis): – DNA is replicated

10. G2 Phase (Gap 2): Further Cell Growth Protein Synthesis Specialized proteins needed for Cell Division

11. The cell grows during all three phases, but chromosomes are duplicated only during the S phase

12. Mitotic Phase

13. Mitosis: Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase

14. Cytokinesis is division of cytoplasm/cell: – cleavage furrow forms in animal cells – cell plate (cell wall) forms in plant cells – daughter cells are identical

20. Prophase The cell prepares for nuclear division Animal and Plant Cell – Packages DNA into chromosomes – nuclear envelope breaks down – Centrosomes move apart and forms spindle which guides chr. separation

21. Metaphase Animal Cell Plant Cell Photographs from: http://www.bioweb.uncc.edu/biol1110/Stages.htm

22. Metaphase The cell prepares chromosomes for division Animal and Plant Cell – Chromosomes line up at the center of the cell – Spindle fibers attach from daughter cells to chromosomes at the centromere

23. Anaphase Animal Cell Plant Cell Photographs from: http://www.bioweb.uncc.edu/biol1110/Stages.htm

24. Anaphase The chromosomes divide Animal and Animal Cell – Spindle fibers pull chromosomes apart – ½ of each chromosome (called chromotid) moves to each daughter cell

25. Telophase Animal Cell Plant Cell Photographs from: http://www.bioweb.uncc.edu/biol1110/Stages.htm

26. Telophase The cytoplasm divides Animal Cell – chromosomes uncoil – 2 nuclei form – spindle breaks down – nuclear envelope and – nucleoli reappear
