Learn about mitosis, the process of cell division in somatic cells, with its stages and significance in asexual reproduction. Understand the cell cycle, interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis.

What is Mitosis? • Mitosis: Cell division involving somatic (non-sex) cells • Involves only diploid cells • Form of asexual reproduction for some life (bacteria & protista, fungi) • End Result: Two genetically identical “daughter cells”
The Cell Cycle • Defined: Repeating set of events in the life of a cell • 1) Interphase • G1, S, G2 • 2) Prophase • 3) Metaphase • 4) Anaphase • 5) Telophase mitosis
Interphase • Divided into 3 Stages: • G1 Stage • Normal function performed • Cell growth • Organelles created (replicated) • S Stage • Chromatin (DNA strands) duplicated • G2 Stage • Cell growth • Normal function performed
Prophase • 1st Mitosis Stage • Chromatin (DNA strands) coils into chromosomes • Nucleus dissolves spilling the chromosomes • Spindle fibers form
Metaphase • 2nd stage of mitosis • Spindle fibers attach to centromeres of each chromosome • Spindle fibers pull the chromosomes to the cell’s equator
Anaphase • 3rd stage of mitosis • Spindle fibers pull apart the chromosomes • 1 chromatid pulled to each direction
Start (interphase) Telophase • 4th stage of mitosis • Spindle fibers dissolve • Chromatids unwind into chromatin • Nucleus begins to reform • During telophase • Cytokinesis begins to occur (division of cytoplasm) • End result: 2 identical diploid cells End (Telophase)
Name that Stage! Metaphase Hint: Chromosomes are aligned in middle of cell
Name that Stage! Telophase Hint: Cell plate is splitting the cell
Name that Stage! Interphase Hint: Two normal looking nuclei of two cells
Name that Stage! Prophase Hint: Chromosomes are forming and the nucleus is gone
Name that Stage! Anaphase Hint: Chromatids are being pulled apart
prophase c a b interphase d metaphase telophase e anaphase 30 seconds: Discuss with your neighbor. Name picture A, B, C, D, E.
Mitosis A Quick Overview
Review • In order, name the 5 stages of the cell cycle. • During which interphase stage do organelles replicate? • What do you call the division of the cell’s cytoplasm ? • Which type of cells divide by mitosis? • During which interphase stage is DNA created? • During which stage do spindle fibers form? • During which stage are chromosomes aligned in the middle? • During which stage are chromatids separated? • During which stage does the nucleus dissolve? • What is the result of mitosis?
