  1. Mitosis and Meiosis Cell Division and Reproduction

  2. MITOSIS • Process of one cell making two new identical daughter cells • Both new cells will have same number of chromosomes as original cell • Both new cells with have DNA code as original cell

  3. MITOSIS • INTERPHASE: Cell is doing what cells need to do to survive, nucleus visible but no chromosomes are visible

  4. MITOSIS • PROPHASE: Nuclear membrane disappears, DNA replicates and becomes visible inside cell

  5. MITOSIS • METAPHASE: Spindle fibers form at opposite sides of chromosomes; chromosomes line up in center of cell

  6. MITOSIS • EARLY ANAPHASE: Spindle fibers attach to chromosomes; pull one chromosome set to each side of cell

  7. MITOSIS • LATE ANAPHASE: Chromosomes are at opposite sides of the cell; spindle fibers disappear

  8. MITOSIS • TELOPHASE: New cell membrane forms between chromosome sets; two new cells formed; each ½ size of original cell

  9. MITOSIS • One large cell makes two smaller cells with same number of chromosomes; allows organisms to grow

  10. MEIOSIS • One large cell will produce 4 smaller cells • Each cell will have ½ the normal number of chromosomes • Cells produced will fuse together during sexual reproduction • May be called egg and sperm or + and -

  11. MEIOSIS • Looks like two versions of mitosis • DNA does not duplicate second time through prophase • 1 cell makes two identical cells, then each of these makes two cells with ½ the normal number of chromosomes

  12. MEIOSIS • Egg cell and sperm cell combine to form zygote (new organism) • ½ chromosomes in egg + ½ chromosome in sperm = NEW ORGANISM WITH RIGHT NUMBER OF CHROMOSOMES

  13. MEIOSIS • One cell makes 4 reproductive cells
