REVIEW OF MITOSIS: THE PURPOSE • Mitosis makes identical somatic clones via asexual reproduction • Unicellular organisms split to make 2 copies (via binary fission) • Multicellular organisms split to make 2 new daughter cells • Why do you think that only body cells and unicellular organisms (like bacteria) go through mitosis?
LET’S RUN THROUGH MITOSIS ONE MORE TIME • What are the steps involved in mitosis? • Prophase, prometaphse, metaphase, and telophase
DRAW A FLOW CHART OF MEIOSIS (INCLUDE THE COMPONENTS) • 2 N mom and 2 N dad each gives an N gamete 2 N zygote • So…. the pattern of meiosis when looking at ploidy is diploid, haploid, diploid
TERMS • What are homologous chromosomes? • A paternal and maternal chromosome that hold the same trait • Karyotype • A pair of homologous chromosomes • Locus or loci • Where the homologous chromosomes connect
HOT SEAT REVIEW OF YESTERDAY AND TODAY!
SISTER CHROMATIDS • One half of a chromosome. Each half is identical and is connected by a centromere
CENTROSOME • Two centrioles! Cylindrical organization of microtubules
KINETOCHORE • Where the mitotic spindles attach to the chromatids
HOMOLOGOUS CHROMOSOME • A chromosome from mom and dad that meet up at a loci due to similar genes
NUCLEAR ENVELOPE • Where the chromatin is held. Gets broken down in Mitosis
