Chapter 14 Cell Division 1

Cell Continuity All cells develop from pre-existing cells 3 steps to form a new cell 1. Produce materials it will need 2. Grows larger 3. Reproduces to form a new cell Cell continuity is the ability of cells to divide and survive from one generation to the next. 2

• In Cell Division-Mitosis Song 3

Chromosomes • Structures in Nucleus, made of DNA & Protein • Not dividing = Chromatin (long thin threads) • When dividing = Chromatin forms a numbers of clearly distinguishable Chromosomes • Each species has a definite no. of Chromosomes, Humans = 46 chromosomes • Each Chromosomes has 1000 s of genes • What’s in a Nucleus 4

TERMS • Chromatin - When the cell is not dividing, chromatin exists as a mass of very long, thin fibers that are not visible with a light microscope. • Sister chromatids - Replicated forms of a chromosome joined together by the centromere and eventually separated during mitosis or meiosis. 5

Learning Check 1. What does cell continuity mean? 2. What 3 stages are involved in cell continuity? 3. What is a chromosome? 4. When chromosomes are not dividing what are they known as? 5. How many chromosomes are found in a typical human cell? 7

Haploid • A Haploid cell has one set of chromosomes, i. e. has only one set of each type of chromosomes in the nucleus. • Haploid is symbolised by letter ‘n’ and number of chromosomes in the cell is given as e. g. n=23 • In humans, eggs and sperm are haploid n=23 8

9

Diploid • A Diploid has two sets of chromosomes, i. e. It has two of each type of chromosome in the nucleus • Chromosomes are in pairs in diploid cell, called homologous pairs. • Diploid is symbolised as ‘ 2 n’ and total no. of chromosomes in cell is given as e. g. 2 n=46 • In humans body / somatic cells are diploid 2 n=46 10

In diploid cells, 1 chromosome from the homologous pair comes from the mother and the other from the father. 11

Cell Cycle 14

Cell Cycle • The cell cycle describes the cell’s activities in the state of non-division (interphase) and division (mitosis). • At Interphase when the cell is not dividing, there is only one cell, but after Mitosis there are two identical cells called daughter cells. • Mitosis is a form of nuclear division in which one nucleus divides to form two nuclei, each containing identical sets of chromosomes. 15

16

Interphase Longest phase in cell cycle as before mitosis can take place, the cell needs to store enough energy to drive the chemical processes during the cell division. 1. chromosomes become visible in the nucleus short, thick and duplicated(DNA ) 2. Produces new organelles e. g. mitochondria, centrioles 3. Produces chemicals needed for growth. Chromosomes under microscope 17

Near the end of interphase chromosome duplication occurs. When this occurs the single strand chromosome becomes a double strand. 18 Each strand has identical genes.

INTERPHASE 19

Learning Check 1. How many stages are there in the cell cycle? 2. What part of the cell cycle does the cell spend most of its time in? 3. What happens in this stage? 4. What is the stage when the cell is actually dividing called? 5. What kind of cells are produced by mitosis? 20

Stage 1 - Prophase Each chromosome has replicated during interphase and is therefore composed of two sister chromatids containing identical genetic information together at region called the centromere 1. The nuclear membrane and nucleolus are no longer visible. 2. The Centrioles / spindle apparatus has migrate to opposite poles of the cell. 21

PROPHASE 22

Stage 2 - Metaphase • Chromosomes migrate towards the cell centre. • The spindle fibres attach themselves to the centromeres of the chromosomes, 1 from each side of the cell. 23

METAPHASE 24

Stage 3 - Anaphase • The spindle fibres shorten and • the centromere splits, • separated sister chromatids are pulled to opposite ends of cell. • Hence, identical set of genes pulled to each end of the cell. • Stages of Mitosis 25

ANAPHASE 26

Stage 4 - Telophase • The chromosomes reach the poles of their respective spindles. • Nuclear envelope forms around each of the 2 sets of chromosomes • Chromosomes elongate within each nucleus • Cleavage furrow formation in animal cells, • cell plate formation in plant cells. • Mitosis is complete • Once complete, original cell divides to form 2 cells 27

Functions of Mitosis In Unicellular Organisms • mitosis allows the organisms to multiply e. g. Amoeba In Multicellular Organisms • mitosis is responsible for growth, renewal and repair e. g. production of new cells. 39

Everyone together • The Mitosis Song 'I Will Divide' 41

• The Cell Cycle and Cancer 42

Cancer • Rate of cell division (mitosis) is carefully controlled. • Sometimes a cell or group of cells lose the ability to control the rate of cell division. • They form a mass of cells called a tumour which can be benign or malignant. 43

Benign tumours • Benign means kind, they are not life threatening and do not invade other tissues. E. g. warts, skin tags. • Cells stop dividing after some time • Cancer is a group of disorders in which certain cells lose their ability to control both the rate of mitosis and the number of times mitosis takes place. 44

Malignant tumours • Uncontrolled multiplication of abnormal cells • Malignant tumours (cancers) invade other cells and move around the body • Movement of these cells called Metastasis. • Cancer cells divide indefinitely. 45

Causes of Cancer • Caused when normal genes are altered to form cancer-causing genes called oncogenes • Brought about by cancer causing agents called carcinogens e. g. cigarette smoke, asbestos fibres, ultraviolet radiation and some viruses • Most cancers can be cured with Radiation (burn out cancer), Chemotherapy (Chemicals slow down mitosis) and surgery. • Cancer 46

Learning Check 1. How do tumours form? 2. What is the difference between benign and malignant tumours? 3. When cancer cells spread it is called m. . . . . ? 4. Can you name 3 possible causes of cancer? 47

Meiosis • Is a form of nuclear division in which the daughter nuclei contain half the chromosome number of the parent nucleus. • Human cells have 46 chromosomes • Meiosis occurs in the ovaries and testes to produce gametes called eggs and sperm so there are 23 chromosomes in each egg and sperm 48

49

THE STAGES OF MEIOSIS • Involves 1 replication and 2 cell divisions, producing four haploid (n) cells: Meiosis 1 Prophase 1: - nuclear membrane dissolves – centrioles move to poles – spindle fibres forming – DNA has been replicated and forms chromosomes made of 2 identical chromatids – Homologous chromosomes line up – Where chromatids overlap it allows for CROSSING OVER of genetic information between chromosomes 50

• Metaphase 1: - homologous chromosomes (4 chromatids) line up on the equator • Anaphase 1: - homologous chromosomes separate and each chromosome (2 chromatids) move towards opposite poles (SEGREGATION) • Telophase 1: - cytoplasm divides to form 2 new cells with 46 chromosomes each – the nuclei may not form – NOTE: the cells are not identical 51

Meiosis 2 • Interphase 2: no doubling of DNA, it is just the time between meiosis I/II • Prophase 2: - spindle fibres forming • Metaphase 2: - chromosomes (2 chromatids) line up on the equator • Anaphase 2: - chromatids separate, each one moves to opposite pole • Telophase 2: - nuclear membrane forming – 4 daughter cells are produced, haploid, (n) – 4 sperm but 1 egg (3 polar bodies) 52

53

Functions of Meiosis In Multicellular Organisms: 1. Allows sexual reproduction without increasing the number of chromosomes in the offspring 2. Allows new combinations of genes 54

Compare Mitosis & Meiosis Mitosis Meiosis No. Of Chromosomes in resulting cell Same as parent cell i. e. kept constant - Diploid Half the number of the parent cell - HAPLOID Genes present on the Chromosomes in resulting cell Identical to the parent cell Different to the parent cell Result 2 identical daughter cells 4 haploid cells Role Asexual Rep in unicellular organisms, Growth/replacement in multicellular organisms Produce haploid gametes for reproduction, genetic variation 55
