Functions GROWTH REPRODUCTION REPLACEMENT
Genome • Entire set of DNA in each cell of an org • Normally one circular chromosome in prokaryotes
Binary Fission • Single chromosome replicates • One pulls away • Membrane & wall separate cell
Binary Fission • A single cell of Serratiamarcescens just landed on your eyeball. This bacterium has the potential to divide every 30 minutes. How many cells will be on your eyeball in... • One hour? • Four hours? • One whole day? • How will the observed values be different from the expected values you calculated? Explain why.
Human Genome • 6,000,000,000 base pairs long • Split into 46 chromosomes • 23 are maternal • 23 are paternal Diploid (2n)
Cell Cycle Cell Growth DNA Replication Normal Function Splitting of the rest of the cell Cell Growth Identical distribution of replicated DNA into nuclei of 2 daughter cells
Interphase - DNA Replication • Each chromosome replicates to form identical chromatids • Attached by centromeres
Prophase • Chromosomes coil • Spindle forms • Nuc envelope breaks down
Metaphase • Spindle fibers force chromosomes to metaphase plate
Anaphase • Chromatids move to opposite poles
Telophase • Nuclear envelopes reform • DNA uncoils
Cytokinesis (animal) • Microfilaments pinch off cell
Cytokinesis (Plant) • Cellulose vesicles form new cell wall
