Tuesday, March 24, 2015 The Cell Cycle Mitosis Stages of Cell Cycle= M, G1, S, and G2 When do cells divide -during development -during growth -cell repair and replacement *brain and spinal chord cells cannot divide when adult stem cells= undifferentiated cells G1= cells have just divided from a previous cell -cell growth -replication of organelles -cell is doing its job (mostly making proteins) Karyotype- 46 chromosomes (23 pairs) -only appears organized during M stage -DNA exists as chromatin during stages G1, S, and G2 chromatin= uncondensed DNA with associated proteins interphase= stages G1, S, and G2 1 Tuesday, March 24, 2015 S= DNA replication -copy all 46 chromosomes G2= cell is still doing cell job -organelle replication -cell growth -centrosome replication (1—> 2) Interphase= G1, S, and G2 Prophase Metaphase M (Mitosis or Meiosis) Anaphase Telophase Prophase: -chromosomes become condense and visible -nuclear envelope breaks down -microtubules grow from centrosomes and attach to chromosomes Metaphase: -all chromosomes are aligned at “equator” of cell (metaphase plate) Anaphase: -sister chromatids separate and migrate to opposite poles * sister chromatids are genetically identical 2 Tuesday, March 24, 2015 Telophase: -division of cytoplasm -2 new cells and nuclear envelopes reform Meiosis division of cells to form gametes (eggs and sperm)
