What is Mitosis? Mitosis : Cell division involving somatic (non- sex) cells Involves only diploid cells – 2n Form of asexual Form of asexual reproduction for some life (bacteria & protista fungi) (bacteria & protista, fungi) End Result : Two genetically identical genetically identical “daughter cells” The Cell Cycle Defined: Repeating set of events in the life of a cell Defined : Repeating set of events in the life of a cell 1) Interphase G1 S G2 G1, S, G2 2) Prophase 3) Metaphase 3) Metaphase 4) Anaphase 5)T l h 5) Telophase Remember: The cell won’t continue on to the next stage unless the cell is large enough and everything has been copied properly.

What is Mitosis?• Mitosis: Cell division

involving somatic (non-sex) cells

• Involves only diploid cellsy p– 2n

• Form of asexual• Form of asexual reproduction for some life (bacteria & protista fungi)(bacteria & protista, fungi)

• End Result: Two genetically identicalgenetically identical “daughter cells”

The Cell Cycle• Defined: Repeating set of events in the life of a cell• Defined: Repeating set of events in the life of a cell• 1) Interphase

Remember: The cell won’t continue on to the next stage unless the cell is large enough and everything has been copied properly.

Interphasep• Divided into 3 Stages:• G1 Stage• G1 Stage

– Normal function performed

– Cell growth– Organelles replicated

• S Stage• S Stage– Chromatin (DNA

strands) duplicated• G2 Stage

– Cell growthN l f ti– Normal function performed

Prophasep• 1st Mitosis Stage• Chromatin (DNA

strands) coils into chromosomes

• Nucleus dissolvesNucleus dissolves spilling the chromosomeschromosomes

• Spindle fibers fform

Metaphasep• 2nd stage of

mitosismitosis• Spindle fibers

attach toattach to centromeres of each chromosomea o oso

• Spindle fibers pull the chromosomes to the cell’s equator

Anaphasep• 3rd stage of mitosis• Spindle fibers pull

½ the chromatids to each end of the cell–Humans: 46

chromatids each way

Telophasep• 4th stage of mitosis
