Cell Division
• 2 types of cell division:
– MITOSIS (division of body cells)
– MEIOSIS (division of sex cells)
THE CELL
CYCLE
The Cell Cycle
• Cell cycle – regular sequence of growth and
division that eukaryotic cells undergo.
– Prokaryotic cells undergo binary fission
DNA duplication
during interphase
Mitosis
Diploid Cell
Where Do I Find DNA?
• Chromosomes are in the
nucleus of every cell.
• Remember PMAT!
• Prophase
• Metaphase
• Anaphase
• Telophase
Prophase
• Nucleus disappears
• Spindle fibers form in the cytoplasm
• Spindle fibers attach to sister chromatids
Metaphase
• The sister chromatids are pulled to
the center of the cell
• They line up in the middle of the cell
“metaphase plate”
• Metaphase is the longest stage of
mitosis, lasting about 20 minutes.
