1. CELL DIVISION
Why do cell divide?
large cells have difficulty transporting enough nutrients across their
membrane
Cells are limited in size by their SURFACE AREA and VOLUME ratio
What is Cell Division?
the process by which a parent cell divides into two or more daughter cells.
Phases of Meiosis I
Prophase II
Metaphase II
Anaphase I
Telophase I + Cytokinesis
Phases of Meiosis II
Prophase II
Metapahse II
Anaphase II
Telophase II + Cytokinesis
Types of Meiosis
Meiosis I
The first Meiotic division is a reduction division (diploid > haploid)in which
homologous chromosomes are separated
Meiosis II
The second division separates sister (chromatids there chromatids may not be
identical due to crossing over propahse I)
Two Types of Cell Division
Eukaryotes
Mitosis

2. A vegetative dividion, whereby each daughter cell is genetically identical to the
parent cell
Meiosis
A reproductive division, whereby the number of chromosomes in the daughter cell is
reduced to half to produce haploid gametes
Phases of Mitosis
Interphase
Prophase
Metapahase
Anaphase
Telophase
Cytokinesis
