Learn about chromosomes, cell reproduction in humans, mitosis, the cell cycle, genetic information, and the implications of mutations such as cancer. Discover the stages of cell division and key terms associated with cellular processes.

CHROMOSOMES AND CELL REPRODUCTION
About 2 trillion cells are produced by you every day Per second? About 25 million Egg/Sperm “Zygote” Embryo Fetus Baby
“Cell Division” “Cell Reproduction”
THE CELL CYCLE = sequence of growth and division - Interphase - Mitosis 2 Stages?
S DNA Replication Exact copies of Chromosomes **DNA must be copied then distributed
DNA Gene= a segment of DNA that codes for a protein Gene Genes You
Chromosome DNA Gene Chromosome = consists of DNA tightly coiled around proteins
Single? 46 # Pairs? 23 “Somatic cells” (body cells) HUMANS
Why pairs? Diploid = 2n Mom Dad Gene Gene Gene Gene Pair 1-22 = Autosomes Gene Gene Gene Gene Pair 23 = Sex Chromosomes
Human 46 Molecules that aid? G1? End of S? Enzymes 92
G2 Growth/Prep for Mitosis “Centrioles” “Centrioles”
MITOSIS Acronym? PMAT Phases? Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Cytokinesis
92 PMAT 46 46 Cytokinesis 46 46
Chromosome DNA pairs find “partner” = Sister Chromatids Sister Chromatids “Homologous Chromosomes”
M P Pairs? 46 T A
CYTOKINESIS Animal Plant “Cleavage Furrow” “Cell Plate”
Daughter Cells go? Interphase
3 1 Prophase Anaphase 4 Telophase Which? 2 Metaphase 5 Interphase
Control of the Cell Cycle 90% time in Interphase Feedback signals – “red/green light” Controlled by proteins
Cancer = uncontrolled growth/division of cells If gene that contains info for cell growth/division is mutated = Cell growth/division unregulated
Tumor • = a mass of abnormal cells. “benign tumor” “malignant tumor” • Metastasis • (start more tumors) Therapy? Radiation therapy Chemotherapy with toxic drugs. Mammograms
How many cells are in a phase represents how long the phase is
