Cell Biology. Mitosis, DNA, RNA. Mitosis (Cell Reproduction). This is the process of cell division resulting in the production of 2 daughter cells from a single parent cell. The daughter cells are identical to one another and to the parent cell. Happens during growth or repair.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Cell Biology Mitosis, DNA, RNA

  2. Mitosis (Cell Reproduction) • This is the process of cell division resulting in the production of 2 daughter cells from a single parent cell. • The daughter cells are identical to one another and to the parent cell. • Happens during growth or repair. • Mitosis is divided into 4 main stages: • P M A T etaphase naphase elophase rophase

  3. Prophase n Metaphase 1) Prophase • Chromosomes are duplicated (become 2 sisters) • 2) Metaphase (Middle phase) • Chromosomes are aligned in the middle of the cell

  4. Anaphase and Telophase 3) Anaphase • The paired chromosomes separate and move to the opposite sides of the cell. • 4) Telophase • Cell membrane pinches inwards, forming two daughter cells

  5. Mitosis Video clips • Mitosis TPRs • http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=3kpR5RSJ7SA • http://www.cellsalive.com/mitosis.htm

  6. Plant Cell v/s Animal Cell Has a LARGE vacuole Has small vacuoles Has a CELL WALL Does NOT have a cell wall Has a rectangular shape Has a oval shape

  7. Which set of drawing shows what happens to cells in plant root tips during growth?

  8. DNA and RNA • Is the hereditary material in all organisms located in the cell nucleus. • Information in DNA is stored in 4 bases: • A – Adenine • T – Thymine • C – Cytosine • G – Guanine A and T always form a base unit (AT & T) C and G form another base unit

  9. DNA video clip • http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/begin/tour/ • Remember • A always pairs with T • C and G go together

  10. Remember AT & T, C with G G T C T

  11. Remember AT & T, C with G T C A A G G T C T 3’ AGTTC 5’

  12. Now for RNA • RNA is similar to DNA except that ‘T’ is replaced by ‘U’ or Uracil. • To convert DNA to RNA • Step 1: Replace C with G, G with C, A with T and T with A. • Step 2: Replace only ‘T’ with ‘U’ • What is the RNA molecule coded from the DNA molecule ATGCGC? • Step 1 T A C GCG U A C G C G Step 2

  13. Find the RNA molecule For the DNA molecule http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJSmZ3DsntU Step 1 A G T T C Step 2 A G U U C

  14. Review • Mitosis • Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase • Difference between Animal and Plant cells • RNA transcription • Complete the worksheet on Mitosis and DNA
