Anaphase Prophase Telophase Late anaphase Mitosis in Onion Cells If the cells of a growing root tip are examined, a proportion of them are in mitosis. Cells in different stages of division can be seen. Mitosis is the process bywhich the cell producestwo new daughter cellsfrom the original parent cell.

1. Interphase Interphase Interphase is the first step of the process Cells prepare for Mitosis by accumulating materials required At this point, individual chromosomes cannot be seen This is the longest phase in which the DNA replicates
Interphase Chromosomes need to be duplicated into double stranded chromosomes, so each daughter cell can receive an identical copy
2. Prophase Prophase During Prophase, the chromosomes begin to condense, and become visible under a microscope Eventually they can be seen as individual chromosomes The nuclear membrane breaks down Centrioles appear at opposite ends of the cell
3. Metaphase Metaphase During Metaphase, the chromosomes line up through the middle of the cell Spindle fibres extend from the centrioles, and meet up with the chromosomes in the middle The ends of the spindle fibres attach to the chromosomes
4. Anaphase Anaphase During Anaphase, the spindle fibres begin to contract, pulling the chromosomes. They split apart at the centromere, separating them into 2 chromatids These chromatids are now single stranded chromosomes The spindle fibres draw the chromosomes to either end of the cell, each side having the exact copies
5. Telophase Telophase During Telophase, the opposite occurs to prophase. The chromosomes begin to expand. The chromosomes can no longer be seen individually A nuclear membrane begins to form around each set of chromosomes The spindle dismantles and disappears
Cytokinisis Cytokinesis is not part of Mitosis, although it starts occurring during Anaphase or Telophase It is the separation of the two daughter cells The membrane pinches inwards and a cleavage furrow appears The membrane is formed and 2 daughter cells are born!!

Haploid sex cells have only one copy of each homologous pair of autosomes plus one sexchromosome.

One chromosome from each homologous pair is donated to each intermediate cell.

Sister chomatids of each chromosome are pulledapart and are donated to each gamete cell.

Meiosis I Meiosis II n+1 n+1 n–1 n–1 Non-disjunction in Meiosis I Non-disjunction in Meiosis I The meiotic spindle normally distributes chromosomes to daughter cells without error. Sometimes, homologous chromosomes or sister chromatids fail to separate. In these cases, one gamete receives two of the same type of gamete and the other gamete receives no copy. This mishap, called non-disjunction,results in abnormal numbers of chromosomes in the gametes. This example shows non-disjunction in meiosis I; homologous chromosomes fail to separate properly at anaphaseduring meiosis I.
Meiosis I Meiosis II n+1 n–1 n n Non-disjunction in Meiosis II Non-disjunction in Meiosis II Non-disjunction can also occur in meiosis II, when sister chromatids fail to separate during anaphase of meiosis II. In cases of non-disjunction, if either of the aberrant gametes unites with a normal one at fertilization, the offspring will have an abnormal chromosome number(e.g. 2N+1 or 2N–1). This is known as aneuploidy and it accounts for chromosomal defects such as Down syndrome (trisomy 21) and Edward syndrome (trisomy 18).
Overview Mitosis • Cells undergo mitotic division during which time the genetic material is doubled and divided into two cells. Meiosis • Meiosis is a reduction division that results in the formation of haploid (N) cells from diploid (2N) ones. • Its purpose is to produce gametes for sexual reproduction. • During meiosis, genetic material is exchanged between chromosomes;this introduces genetic variation into the offspring.
Helpful Hints to remember • Cell division takes place for the growth, development, repair and replacement of tissues • Mitosis replaces cells and meiosis produces gametes for reproduction • Males gamete = sperm formed in the testes and female gamete = ovum formed in the ovaries • Haploid the daughter cells have half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell. • Diploid have double, in other words the daughter and parent cells have the same number of chromosomes • Each human body cell has 23 pairs, or 46 chromosomes. Sperm and ova have only 23 chromosomes
