The Cell Cycle :The Cell Cycle BIOLOGY
Key Terms :Key Terms Genome—the total complement of an organism’s genes
Chromatin—network of DNA and fibrils in a nucleus that is not dividing.
Chromosome—structure of DNA that transmits genetic information to the next generation.
Chromatids—two copies of the same chromosome attached together
Centromere—constriction where sister chromatids of a chromosome are held together. Chromatin in a developing salamander ovum
Mitosis :Mitosis A diploid cell divides to produce diploid daughter cells.
Diploid means that each cell has a pair of each chromsome
(matched set)
Ensures that each daughter cell contains the exact same chromosomes as the original mother cell.
Mitosis maintains chromosome number.
Interphase :Interphase Most of the cell cycle is spent in interphase.
G1 - all organelles double; gathers materials for DNA replication.
S - DNA replication.
G2 - Cell makes all the proteins necessary for cell division.
Prophase :Prophase Prophase
Chromatin has condensed.
Nucleolus disappears.
Nuclear envelope disintegrates.
Spindle begins to assemble.

Metaphase and Anaphase :Metaphase and Anaphase Metaphase
Chromosomes, attached to spindle fibers, are lined up at the center of the cell.
Anaphase
Sister chromatids split, producing daughter chromosomes.
Daughter chromosomes are pulled to opposite poles.
Telophase :Telophase Telophase
spindle disappears
new nuclear envelopes form around the daughter chromosomes.
Chromosomes uncoil.
Nucleolus appears in each daughter nucleus.
Cytokinesis :Cytokinesis Animal Cells:
Cleavage furrow begins as
anaphase finishes.
Cytokinesis divides the cytoplasm and all organelles between the two new cells
Cytokinesis :Cytokinesis Plant Cells:
Begins with formation of a cell plate which eventually becomes new plasma membrane between the daughter cells.
