2. Cell Reproduction
• According to the CELL THEORY, all CELLS
come from PREEXISTING cells and have the
capability of reproducing
• Life is based on the reproduction of cells or
“CELL DIVISION”
3. I. What is Cell Division?
• PRODUCTION of DAUGHTER cells
4. II. What will happen because of cell
division?
• GROWTH and DEVELOPMENT: because
of an increase in cell number, cell size, and cell
products, the organism grows in stages and
shows developmental difference.
5. III. Two Types of Cell Division
Asexual Sexual
Set up a table Or tree map in
space provided
6. Asexual
• Mother cell reproduces 2 IDENTICAL
daughter cells
• Example: MITOSIS
• Types of cells reproduced: body cells
(somatic)
• Happens in both Eukaryotic and
Prokaryotic cells
7. Sexual
• After sperm and egg are produced, fusion
of these cells produces a non-identical cell
• Example: Meiosis
• Types of cells produced: sperm/egg
• Only in Eukaryotic cells
8. IV. Eukaryotic Cell Division – Up Close
A. The CELL CYCLE: events of the cell that
happen before, during, and after cell division
o THREE special events: Interphase (I), Mitosis
(M), and Cytokinesis (C)
9. 1. Interphase (I): 70-90% of cell’s life
• NO active cell division
• 3 phases: G1, S, G2
10. Make an Interphase flow map on the
bottom of your paper:
Interphase G1 S Phase G2
• 3 • Growth • DNA • Final
Phases • Metabolic copies growth
processes
11. 2. Mitosis (PMAT): DIVISION of the cell’s
NUCLEUS
• Separation of CHROMOSOMES in a
series of processes
• Resulting cell has 2 new NUCLEI
• 4 distinct phases: PMAT
12. 3. Cytokinesis (C): final DIVISION of the
Cell’s CYTOPLASM
• 2 new DAUGHTER cells (Identical)
• Animal cells pinch or cleave into 2 cells
• Plant cells separate as new cell wall divides
the 2 cells
