CELL DIVISION
Remember…*DNA more stable than RNA
•* All organisms must be able to reproduce to keep life going
One cell becoming two
All Reproducing Cells 1. Replicate DNA in parent cell during
the S phase. 2.Replicate organelles 3. Perform cytokinesis- division of
cytoplasm and cell membrane.Cyto – cell, kinesis- movement
Reasons for Cell Division In unicellular organisms it is primarily for
reproduction of themselves. In multicellular organisms it is for
reproduction, growth, and repair of tissues. If cells do not divide, they get to big. Two major problems with big cells:
DNA cannot code for all of the necessary functions
Substances cannot enter and exit fast enough.

Preparing for mitosis
Cytokinesis
Three Reasons for Cell Division
Four Events that Must occur for Cell Division A reproductive signal
(intracellular/extracellular) to initiate division. Replication of DNA, so the new cells match
identically to old cell. Segregation- process by which DNA is
passed to each of the two resulting new cells.
Cytokinesis- process by which the cell membrane and cell wall separate into two new cells.
Binary Fission In prokaryotes, the entire single-celled
organism divides. First it doubles in size, then duplicates
its DNA, and then divides. In prokaryotes, the initiating reproductive
signal is thought to be environmental conditions and food supply
DNA Replication in Prokaryotes (S phase) Most prokaryotes only have one
chromosome, and it is circular .
Circular chromosomes are also in chloroplasts, mitochondria, and viruses.
ori- origin site of DNA replication ter- terminus of DNA replication
Figure 9.2 Prokaryotic Cell Division (Part 1)
Prokaryotic DNA Replication Referred to as circular or theta
replication. Cleavage furrow follows after replication The two resulting cells are clones=
identical cells. Mitosis is thought to have evolved from
binary fission…commonality: synthesis and division
Eukaryotic Cell Division Most complex eukaryotes originate from a
single cell: fertilized egg. The formation of a multicellular organism
from a fertilized egg is known as development.
Eukaryotic cell division are driven by the needs of the organism, not the environmental conditions and food supply.
Somatic cells vs. Germ cellsThe egg surrounded by sperm.
Eukaryotic Cell Division Eukaryotic cells also have more
chromosomes to duplicate. Eukaryotes have a nucleus that needs
to divide before cytokinesis can take place. This is called mitosis.
Mitosis is the division of the nucleus. Cytokinesis is the division of everything
but the nuclear contents. Different in plants than animals
Control of Mitosis in Eukaryotes Cell cycle- the events that occur to produce
two eukaryotic cells from one. Cell cycle has two main phases: Interphase
90-95% of time, Mitosis 5% of time. Cell types vary with how long they live in
interphase. Mitosis and cytokinesis are referred to as
the M phase of the cell cycle, but cytokinesis always follows mitosis.
DNA Division Genome- term for all genetic material in
a cell. In humans the genome is 7ft./cell DNA has 2 appearances:

Data Set Question 1 U3,D1
Remember cell movement… Cytoskeleton is composed of
microtubules, microfilaments, and intermediate filaments.
Centrioles are a part of cytoskeleton made of microtubules.
Microtubules also make up spindle fibers
Proteins will also move things
Centrioles
Interphase
Cell Cycle G1- first growth, everyday activity, first
checkpoint will be passed…point of no return.
S- DNA replicates, (46-92 in humans: 4n)
G2- second growth, second checkpoint where all DNA is proofed and organelles checked for cell division.
Mitosis Mitosis is the segregation step (3) for
eukaryotic cells. Sister chromatids = replicated DNA. Chromatids held together by cohesion-
protein complex, found at centromere.
Before and after the S phase
Figure 9.7 Chromosomes, Chromatids, and Chromatin
Histones Web-like proteins that have a positive
charge, and interact with the negative phosphates of DNA.
Histones form nucleosomes.Eight histone molecules.146 base pairs of DNAHistone One H1. Clamps DNA to histone core.
Chromatin will condense until chromatids move apart in anaphase.
Figure 9.8 DNA is Packed into a Mitotic Chromosome (Part 1)
Centrosomes Centrosomes consist of a pair of
centrioles. Centrioles are hollow tubes consisting of nine microtubules. Each centriole pair is situated perpendicular to one another.
At G2M phase, the centrosomes migrate to opposite ends of the cell.
Plant cells do not have centrosomes, just have a microtubule organization center.
MITOSIS IS DIVISION OF THE NUCLEUS
MITOSIS ANIMATIONMITOSIS-GOOD ANIMATION
Interphase cell (Look at the chromatin in the blue nucleus and the yellow cytoskeleton.)
Mitosis Step 1: Prophase Nuclear membrane begins to break down Cohesion proteins are removed from
chromatin, except at centromere, and the chromatids become distinctly visible.
Kinetochores (proteins) develop at centromere region
Microtubules extend from centrioles, forming spindle fibers.
Cell in Prophase
Prometaphase Not officially step two. Nuclear membrane completely
disappears, as well as nucleolus
Figure 9.10 Mitosis (Part 1)
Metaphase This is when all the centromere are in
the middle of the cell at the equatorial plate.
Chromosomes are maximally condensed at this phase.
At the end of metaphase all chromatid pairs will separate simultaneously. This is the third checkpoint.
Cell in Metaphase
Anaphase Sister chromatids begin to separate. Sister chromatids separate into sister
chromosomes. Separation of chromatids is accomplished by a
protease called separase hydrolyzing the cohesion proteins at the centromere.
Separase is controlled by a competetive inhibitor. Spindle Checkpoint- when all kinetochores are
attached to s.f. then separase becomes activated.
Cell in Anaphase
Figure 9.11 Chromatid Attachment and Separation
Anaphase Movement of sister chromosomes away
from one another is accomplished in two ways.
1. Daughter chromosomes will propel themselves towards opposite centrosome poles (ATPADP)
2. Spindle fibers will shorten drawing the sister chromosomes to opposite ends of the cell.
This process takes ~10min. to one hour.
Telophase When sister chromosomes stop moving,
the cell enters telophase. Spindle fibers begin to break down and
reform the nuclei. Nuclear membranes and nucleoli reform
around the two sets of DNA. Mitosis is complete (segregation of DNA
accomplished)
Cell in Telophase and starting Cytokinesis
Figure 9.10 Mitosis (Part 2)
Cytokinesis The end of telophase is two nuclei in one cell;
therefore, the cell needs to divide. Cytokinesis is the process of cytoplasm division. Animal cells divide by the cell membrane
furrowing. Contraction of actin and myosin microfilaments.
Plant cells’ vesicles from the Golgi bodies, move to equatorial plate, fuse to form new C.M. Vesicle contents also create a cell plate, which becomes new cell wall.
Figure 9.12 Cytokinesis Differs in Animal and Plant Cells
Cell Cycle REGULATION Critical for normal growth and
development Controlled by proteins called cyclins. 3 Checkpoints:

Restriction Point- once RB protein is phosphorylated, it is inactivated and cell cycle progresses.
Tumor Suppressors Cancer is the result of uncontrolled cell division. When Cdk controls are disrupted cell division can
ensue and not be controlled. Proteins can bind to the Cdks along the cell cycle
and prevent division. These proteins are known as tumor suppressors. If these proteins are absent cancer can result. Cancer can also result because these cells do
not abide by external signals: density-dependent inhibition and anchorage dependence.
Density Dependence Inhibition& Anchorage Dependence DDI- when cells touch each other they
stop dividing.
AD- cells must connect to connective tissue to divide
.Cells anchor to dish surface anddivide (anchorage dependence).
When cells have formed a completesingle layer, they stop dividing(density-dependent inhibition).
If some cells are scraped away, theremaining cells divide to fill the gap andthen stop (density-dependent inhibition).

Cancer Cells Do not exhibit DDI or AD Cancer cells are immortal as long as
oxygenated blood is flowing. Performs angiogenesis
Telomerase creates cyclins, and with no checkpoints the cells divide unstoppably.
Cancer Terms “onco” Tumor Benign Malignant Metastasis Cancer Naming Cancer causes- weak genes, environ.,
lifestyle, virus (HPV)
Malignant cancer cells from the breast(See the ABNORMAL “crab” shape of the cells.)
Cancer Genes○ RAS gene (30% of all cancers are the result
of this gene mutation.)These are involved in normal cell to cell
communication. The cell CANNOT shutdown the signal to grow going
to nucleus; so it reproduces very quickly and constantly.
○ p53 gene (A.K.A the Guardian Angel gene.) 50% of all cancers are the result of this mutating.This affects a tumor suppressing gene.
CANCER IS AN ACCUMULATION OF MUTATIONS OVER A LIFE TIME.
○ Life style vs. Genetic Predisposition. We ALL have oncogenes in our genome. Some individuals have stronger control mechanisms that resist mutations; some have weaker. Our CHOICE in life style determines HOW much or WHAT kinds of carcinogens or mutagens we expose our bodies to.
Data Set Question 2 (U3,D3)
Cell Death: Necrosis vs. Apoptosis
Necrosis Apoptosis
Cell death due to damage by toxins, O2 deprivation, or nutrient deficiency.
Cells usually swell and burst.
This usually causes inflammation due to the cell contents in the extracellular matrix
Programmed cell death Due to cell is unneeded,
or cell is aging and may be prone to genetic damage leading to cancer.
Apoptosis 1. Cell isolates itself from its neighbors 2. The chromatin is cut up into nucleosome-sized
pieces. 3. Cell forms membranous lobes that are called
“blebs”. These blebs are ingested by other cells. Apoptosis can be intracellularly/extracellularly
signaled Caspases are used to break down cell components Cancer drugs focus on apoptosis signals
Apoptosis Apoptosis Horror Flick Another Exciting Apopt

Asexual Reproduction Common in unicellular organisms, and
some multicellular organisms such as plants.
Asexual reproduction is also known as vegetative reproduction
Asexual reproduction results in clones. Because they are identical to parents unless a genetic mutation occurs.
Sexual Reproduction Offspring dissimilar from parents. Gametes created by meiosis are
genetically different, thus creating unique offspring.
Meiosis is the raw material basis for natural selection and evolution. (Think offspring comparison of adaptation)
Meiosis is the process of gamete formation.
Fertilization When two haploid gametes fuse to form
a zygote (new organism). Haploid gametes = sperm + egg
Tenets of Sexual Reproduction 1. Two parents each contribute a
gamete (one chromosome set) to offspring through process of meiosis.
2. Gametes are haploid. Gametes called sperm and egg fuse to
form a zygote (diploid).

Chromosome Terminology As a human you
have 46 chromosomes in your somatic cells.
23 from dad, 23 from mom.
You only have 23 chromosomes in your sex cells (egg/sperm).
Homologous Chromosomes Each of the 23
chromosomes inherited by your parents line up in pairs.
These pairs are known as homologous chromosomes.
These homologous chromosomes are identical in size, shape, and location of genes.
Meiosis Meiosis Anima

Meiosis I During Prophase I, a process called
synapsis/ chiasmata occurs. Homologous chromosomes pair by adhering at their lengths.
Proteins aid in this adhesion by forming a scaffold called a synaptonemal complex.
The four bound chromatids form a tetrad. How many chromatids are in human cells
during Meiosis I? 92
Meiosis I and Meiosis IIMeiosis I Meiosis II
Homologues will meet and form a tetrad.
Crossing over occurs: allele swapping.
Telophase I- two new cells with one homologue per cell (still replicated chromatids)
Prophase, Metaphase and Anaphase similar to Mitosis and Meiosis I.
Telophase II results in four haploid daughter cells.
One chromatid per cell
Meiosis I The chromatids that result are known as
recombinant chromatids Not all organisms directly enter Meiosis
II. If an organism does not, it does form a
nuclear membrane at the end of Telophase I
Telophase I is followed by interkinesis, which is similar to mitotic interphase
Meiosis II Homologues are not identical like in
Meiosis I because of crossing over. The result is four haploid nuclei, with a
single set of unreplicated chromosomes.
So what causes genetic diversity Synapsis, crossing over, and segregation of
homologues Aneuploidy- when there are either missing or
excessive chromosomes.MonosomyTrisomy 10-30% human zygotes show trisomy Aneuploidy, ~20% of miscarriages due to aneuploidy
(extra or missing chromosomes)Polyploidy complete extra sets of chromosomes, can
occur naturally, can be result of genetic engineeringAneuploidy Simulations- Utah Site
Cell Signaling…Remember Glycolipids and Glycoproteins Each molecules has its own distinct
shape ECM interacts with cells
If cells don’t‘ communicate with one another they will not function and eventually die .
Cells communicate via chemicals
3 Types of Cell Communication 1. Direct- physical contact between cells
2. Local- grwoth factors released into a local area, or neuron synapses. (no direct contact)
3. Long Distance- hormones and phermones
Direct Contact
Local and Long Distance within an organism.

Signal Transduction Pathway 1971, Earl Sutherland, Vanderbilt U. 1. RECEPTION 2. TRANSDUCTION 3. RESPONSE
1. RECEPTION- molecule binds to cell membrane.
2. TRANSDUCTION- occurs in cytoplasm/nucleus. Changes signal into something usable.
3. RESPONSE- usually involves DNA making protein. Turns signal into action

Mendel Father of Genetics Experimented with
pea plants He used “true-
breeding” plants which were self-pollinating. (identical offspring.)
Mendel and His Peas Mendel cross-bred
pea plants. Cut off the male
parts (pollen), and dusted pollen from another plant to cause fertilization.(aka cross-pollination).
Mendel Mendel studied seven different traits. Trait- specific characteristic, like flower color. P generation- parent generation. F1 generation- offspring of the P generation. Traits are controlled by genes. Genes- segment of DNA Allele- different forms of a particular gene
Ex. Hair color, eye color, plant flower color.
Segregation Mendel wanted to see if
recessive traits disappeared in F1 generation. So he crossed them to make an F2 generation.
He realized that gametes (egg or sperm) only contain one set of genes.
These alleles segregate. GENES SEPARATE
Law of Independent Assortment Just because you have one dominant
gene, does not mean all of your genes are dominant.
INHERITED INDEPENDENTLY
Probability The odds that a
particular event is going to take place.
If you flip a coin, there is a ½ chance/ probability that it will land on heads.
Apply this concept to segregation of alleles.
Probability and Segregation These principles can
only be viewed if there are hundreds or thousands of offspring.
You and your siblings are not enough to prove or disprove this principle.
Allele Types Dominant-
characterized by a capital letter. This form will be
expressed if present.
Recessive- characterized by a lower case letter. This form will only be
expressed if two recessive alleles are present.
Homozygous vs. Heterozygous Heterozygous: for a particular trait the
individual has one dominant and one recessive allele. (Tt)
Homozygous: for a particular trait the individual has both dominant or both recessive alleles. (TT, tt)

Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium 1908 proposed that the frequency of
alleles/genotypes will remain constant if…
1. A large breeding population 2. Random mating vs. selective mating 3. No change in allelic frequency due to
mutation 4. No immigration or emigration 5. No natural selection
H-W Equilibrium p = the frequency of the dominant allele
q = the frequency of the recessive allele For a population in genetic equilibrium:
p + q = 1.0 (The sum of the frequencies of both alleles is 100%.)
(p + q)2 = 1 so
p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1 The three terms of this binomial expansion indicate
the frequencies of the three genotypes: p2 = (homozygous dominant)
2pq = (heterozygous)q2 = (homozygous recessive)
