What happens to a human when he or she reaches the ages of about 1624 years of age? ? ? He or She stops growing

Same thing happens to a cell…but why? ? ? • Watch this video and be able to explain why the cell size has limits. If the volume get too large, reactions will not be able to take place

5. 1 The Cell Cycle TEKS 5 A KEY CONCEPT Cells have distinct phases of growth, reproduction, and normal functions.

5. 1 The Cell Cycle The cell cycle has four main stages. • The cell cycle is a regular pattern of growth, DNA replication, and cell division. TEKS 5 A

5. 1 The Cell Cycle TEKS 5 A • The main stages of the cell cycle are gap 1, synthesis, gap 2, and mitosis. – Gap 1 (G 1): cell growth and normal functions – DNA synthesis (S): copies DNA – Gap 2 (G 2): additional growth – Mitosis (M): includes division of the cell nucleus (mitosis) and division of the cell cytoplasm (cytokinesis) • Mitosis occurs only if the cell is large enough and the DNA undamaged.

5. 1 The Cell Cycle Cells divide at different rates. • The rate of cell division varies with the need for those types of cells. • Some cells are unlikely to divide (G 0). TEKS 5 A

5. 1 The Cell Cycle Cell size is limited. • Volume increases faster than surface area. TEKS 5 A

5. 1 The Cell Cycle • Surface area must allow for adequate exchange of materials. – Cell growth is coordinated with division. – Cells that must be large have unique shapes. TEKS 5 A
