Fundamentals of Biology: Lecture Outlines: Chapter 9 - Cell Division and Mitosis

Multicelled organisms use cell division for:

 

Division involves:

 

Chromosomes

- chromatid

 

Organization of Metaphase Chromosomes:

- DNA + proteins

 

 

- centromeres have disk-shaped kinetochores

Chromosome number

 

Cell cycle

INTERPHASE

G1

S

G2

MITOSIS

 

INTERPHASE

 

Stages of Mitosis (animal cell)

 

PROPHASE

 

TRANSITION - "Prometaphase"

-nuclear membrane breaks down

- microtubules attach

METAPHASE

 

 

ANAPHASE

- sister chromatids separate

- move

 

TELOPHASE

- "daughter" chromosomes reach poles

 

 

Cytokinesis - division of cytoplasm

 

 

HeLa Cells
