The document summarizes the process of beta-oxidation of fatty acids. It occurs in the mitochondrial matrix in four steps - oxidation, hydration, oxidation, and cleavage - resulting in the sequential removal of two-carbon acetyl-CoA units. Fatty acids are first activated to acyl-CoAs in the cytosol then transported into the mitochondria by the carnitine shuttle system to undergo beta-oxidation, generating acetyl-CoA, NADH, and FADH2. Defects in this process can cause various metabolic disorders like fatty acid oxidation disorders.
This document discusses the nomenclature and classification of carbohydrates. It defines monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides. It describes the structural features of common monosaccharides like glucose, galactose, and mannose. It also discusses stereoisomers, anomers, mutarotation, and the reactions of monosaccharides like reduction, oxidation, ester formation, and glycoside formation.

Cell signaling(signaling through g protien coupled receptors,signal transduct...Senthura Pandi
Cell signaling involves the communication between cells through chemical signals or direct cell contact. There are four main types of chemical signaling: paracrine (between nearby cells), autocrine (a cell signaling itself), endocrine (over long distances via hormones), and direct contact signaling through structures like gap junctions. G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of receptors and detect extracellular molecules, activating intracellular signaling pathways. Upon ligand binding, GPCRs activate G proteins which function as molecular switches to transmit signals within the cell via second messengers like cAMP, IP3 and calcium. This leads to functional changes in the target cell.
This document provides an overview of carbohydrate structure and classification. It discusses:
- Monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides as the main classes of carbohydrates.
- Common monosaccharides including glucose and fructose, their cyclic and linear forms, and D/L designations.
- Examples of disaccharides like maltose, cellobiose, sucrose, and lactose formed by glycosidic bond formation.
- Polysaccharides including starch (amylose, amylopectin), glycogen, and cellulose and their roles in storage and structure.

Plasma is the liquid component of blood that remains after red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets are removed. It is composed primarily of water, proteins, electrolytes, nutrients, wastes, and blood gases. The major proteins in plasma include albumin, globulins, and immunoglobulins. Albumin maintains osmotic pressure and transports molecules like hormones, fatty acids, and bilirubin throughout the body. Globulins such as alpha-1 antitrypsin regulate enzymes and transport metals. Immunoglobulins act as antibodies to help fight infection.
Cells communicate through signaling molecules that are detected by receptors on other cells. Signals are transmitted across the cell membrane by signal transduction pathways and cause changes in cell function. Signals may target nearby (paracrine), distant (endocrine), or adjacent (juxtacrine) cells. Ion channels in the cell membrane are important for signal transduction and are classified by their method of gating, such as ligand-gated channels that open in response to neurotransmitters.
This document provides an overview of carbohydrates. It begins by defining carbohydrates and providing their general formula. It then classifies carbohydrates into monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. Monosaccharides are further classified based on functional groups and number of carbon atoms. The structures of monosaccharides and examples of different types of polysaccharides are also outlined. The document discusses optical isomerism in sugars and provides examples of chemical reactions and qualitative tests used to identify carbohydrates. It concludes by covering the biological importance of carbohydrates and some diseases related to carbohydrate metabolism such as diabetes, glycosuria, and glycogen storage diseases.
Receptor molecules have three domains: an extracellular ligand-binding domain, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic domain. G-protein coupled receptors have seven transmembrane alpha helices and activate intracellular signaling pathways by coupling to heterotrimeric G proteins. When a ligand binds to the receptor, it causes a G protein's alpha subunit to exchange GDP for GTP and dissociate from the beta-gamma subunits to activate downstream effector molecules like adenylyl cyclase or phospholipase C. These effectors generate second messengers such as cAMP or IP3/DAG to amplify the signal and regulate cellular processes.
Cell signaling is a complex system of communication that coordinates basic cellular activities and cell actions. It involves signaling molecules that produce responses in target cells through receptor binding. There are three main types of signaling: endocrine, paracrine, and autocrine. Upon receptor activation, various intracellular signal transduction pathways are initiated using second messengers like cAMP, IP3, Ca2+, which activate downstream effector mechanisms to elicit cellular responses. The key pathways include G protein-coupled receptor pathways, tyrosine kinase receptor pathways like Ras/Raf pathway and Jak/Stat pathway. Understanding cell signaling is crucial for treating diseases and engineering tissues.
This document summarizes key aspects of lipid metabolism, including digestion and absorption of lipids, the fate of absorbed lipids, mobilization of fatty acids from adipose tissue, beta-oxidation of fatty acids, ketone body formation and utilization, lipogenesis, and the clinical importance of lipid metabolism. Key points covered include the roles of bile acids and pancreatic lipases in lipid digestion, the formation and function of chylomicrons, hormone-sensitive lipase activation of fatty acid mobilization, fatty acid activation and beta-oxidation pathways, ketogenesis in the liver, the steps and regulation of lipogenesis, and clinical correlates such as ketoacidosis and fatty acid oxidation defects.
This document provides information on carbohydrate metabolism and various pathways involved including glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. It discusses:
- The key roles of glucose and glycogen in carbohydrate metabolism
- The three phases of glycolysis and production of ATP

This document summarizes glycogen metabolism. Glycogen is the storage form of glucose found primarily in the liver and muscles. Glycogenesis is the synthesis of glycogen from glucose using enzymes like glycogen synthase. Glycogenolysis is the breakdown of glycogen into glucose, carried out by phosphorylase and debranching enzymes. The glucose is then converted to glucose-6-phosphate and can re-enter circulation from the liver or be used locally by tissues in glycolysis. Glycogen thus serves to maintain blood glucose levels and acts as a fuel reserve for muscles.

Most dietary carbohydrates are polymers of hexoses,primarily glucose, galactose and fructose.
Glucose is stored in its phosphorylated form glucose-6-phosphate; the formation of which in muscles is catalyzed by hexokinase, and in the liver by glucokinase.
Glucokinase is important because its activity is stimulated by insulin and its activity reduced in starvation, and glucokinase has no stronger affinity for glucose than hexokinase.
Glycolysis is a 10 step pathway that converts glucose into two pyruvate molecules and produces a net yield of two ATP molecules. It involves an energy-investment phase where ATP is used to phosphorylate intermediates and an energy-generation phase where ATP is produced from the oxidation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. Glycolysis is the first step in both aerobic cellular respiration and anaerobic fermentation.
The document summarizes key topics in biochemistry including metabolism, bioenergetics, and biochemical pathways. Specifically, it discusses [1] the principles of bioenergetics including thermodynamics, phosphoryl group transfers, and oxidation-reduction reactions; [2] how ATP and other phosphorylated compounds are used to drive cellular processes; and [3] how electrons flow through metabolic pathways and soluble electron carriers to provide energy for biological work. It concludes by outlining topics to be covered in the next chapter on glycolysis and carbohydrate catabolism.
This document discusses glucose homeostasis and the hormones involved in regulating blood glucose levels. It describes the key roles of insulin and glucagon in maintaining normal glucose levels. Insulin is released when glucose levels rise, promoting glucose uptake into cells. Glucagon is released to increase glucose levels during hypoglycemia. A failure of these hormones to regulate glucose can result in hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia, and over time may lead to conditions like diabetes.
Glycogen is the storage form of Glucose which maintain the blood glucose level under various condition. Glycogen Metabolism is the important pathway of carbohydrate metabolism which gives the information about the glycogen synthesis (Glycogenesis), Glycogen breakdown (Glucogenolysis). Glycogen metabolism also gives the information how this pathway is regulated. Their are various diseases which are associated with this metabolism, commonly known as Glycogen storage diseases.
The document describes the cell cycle and different types of cell division. It explains that binary fission is a simple type of cell division used by prokaryotes like bacteria, where the cell duplicates its DNA and divides in two. Eukaryotic cells use more complex mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis has four stages - prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase - where the duplicated chromosomes separate and the cell divides. Cancer results when cells bypass checkpoints and divide uncontrollably through deregulated mitosis.
Cell cycle is the series of events that lead to cell growth and division into two daughter cells. It consists of interphase (G1, S, G2 phases) and the mitotic (M) phase. Progression through the cell cycle is regulated by cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). Dysregulation of the cell cycle, such as through mutations in oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, can lead to uncontrolled cell growth and cancer.

This document provides an overview of the cell cycle and its checkpoints. It defines the cell cycle as the series of events that a cell undergoes from the time it is formed until it replicates itself. The cell cycle consists of interphase, which includes G1, S, and G2 phases, and the mitotic (M) phase. Checkpoints ensure DNA replication and cell division occur accurately. The G1 checkpoint determines if conditions allow cell division. The G2 checkpoint verifies DNA replication is complete before mitosis. The metaphase checkpoint confirms proper chromosome alignment before anaphase. Growth factors and cyclin-CDK complexes regulate progression through the cell cycle phases and checkpoints.

Cell division through mitosis occurs in three main stages and produces two identical daughter cells. Mitosis includes prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase where the genetic material is duplicated and separated. Cytokinesis then partitions the cytoplasm between the two daughter cells through cleavage in animal cells and cell plate formation in plant cells. Mitosis results in genetic identicalness and is important for growth, repair, and asexual reproduction.
The document summarizes the cell cycle and what happens if checkpoints fail. It describes the phases of the cell cycle - G1, S, G2, M, and C. Checkpoints during G1, G2, and M assess if cells are ready to divide or need to repair errors. If checkpoints don't work, uncontrolled cell division can occur, known as cancer. Cancer cells multiply uncontrollably regardless of errors and won't die. Chemotherapy helps by destroying DNA during mitosis when cancer cells are actively dividing and DNA is unprotected.
Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces gametes, or sex cells, with half the normal number of chromosomes. It was discovered by Oscar Hertwig in 1876 while studying sea urchin eggs. Meiosis involves two cell divisions: Meiosis I and Meiosis II. In Meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate and move to opposite sides of the cell. This reduces the chromosome number by half. Meiosis II then separates the sister chromatids, resulting in four haploid daughter cells. Meiosis introduces genetic variation through independent assortment and crossing over during prophase I. This ensures offspring receive a unique set of chromosomes from each parent.
The document summarizes regulation of the cell cycle. It describes how the eukaryotic cell cycle is divided into four phases - M, G1, S, and G2. Key proteins called cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks) complexed with cyclins regulate progression between phases. Cdk activity is controlled by cyclin accumulation and degradation as well as phosphorylation/dephosphorylation. Distinct cyclin-Cdk complexes trigger events like DNA replication and mitosis. The system incorporates checkpoints and can arrest the cycle in response to errors or conditions.
Meiosis is the process by which germ cells are produced. It involves two rounds of cell division resulting in four haploid gametes or sex cells from one original diploid cell. The key stages of meiosis are: 1) Prophase I where homologous chromosomes pair up, 2) Metaphase I where homologous chromosomes line up, 3) Anaphase I where homologous chromosomes separate, 4) Telophase I forming two haploid cells, 5) Prophase II where chromosomes condense again, 6) Metaphase II where chromosomes align, 7) Anaphase II where sister chromatids separate, and 8) Telophase II forming four haploid gametes. This ensures genetic variation between
The document discusses cellular reproduction and the cell cycle. It explains that cells require genetic instructions from DNA to survive and divide. There are two main types of cells - prokaryotic and eukaryotic. Eukaryotic cells undergo mitotic cell division, which involves interphase where DNA is replicated, followed by mitosis where the cell divides into two identical daughter cells through nuclear division and cytoplasmic division. Mitosis ensures each daughter cell receives a complete copy of genetic material and maintains chromosome number.
Cell division occurs through mitosis and cytokinesis to allow organisms to grow, pass on genetic material, and survive. There are two main types of cell division - mitosis, where daughter cells are genetically identical, and meiosis, where daughter cells are genetically different. Mitosis involves 5 stages (interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase) where the cell duplicates its DNA and separates the copies into two daughter cells, each with identical genetic material. Cytokinesis then separates the cytoplasm between the two cells.
1) Mitosis and meiosis are the two types of cell division. Mitosis produces body cells with two identical daughter cells while meiosis produces gametes with four non-identical daughter cells and half the number of chromosomes.
2) Meiosis occurs in the ovaries of females and testes of males where it produces egg and sperm cells respectively. Fertilization restores the diploid number.
3) The main differences between mitosis and meiosis are that meiosis results in four daughter cells, the cells are haploid, and two cell divisions occur versus one in mitosis. Meiosis introduces genetic variation important for evolution.
The document discusses the cell cycle, including its key phases and control mechanisms. It begins with an overview of the cell cycle phases: interphase (G1, S, G2) and mitosis (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis). It then covers intracellular control, noting positive roles of cyclins and CDKs, and negative roles of Rb and p53 tumor suppressors. Finally, it discusses extracellular control by mitogens, growth factors, and survival factors that regulate cell division, growth, and apoptosis.
This document summarizes the eukaryotic cell cycle and its regulation. It describes that the cell cycle consists of interphase, where the cell grows and duplicates its DNA, and the mitotic phase where the cell divides. Interphase includes G1, S, and G2 phases. The mitotic phase includes M phase where the cell splits into two daughter cells, and cytokinesis where the cells are completely divided. Key regulators of the cell cycle include cyclin-dependent kinases and checkpoint proteins. The document also explains the processes of mitosis and meiosis.
The cell cycle is tightly regulated by both positive and negative regulators to ensure accurate DNA replication and cell division. Positive regulators like cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) control progression through the cell cycle phases. Negative regulators including the retinoblastoma (Rb) protein and p53 protein oppose cell cycle progression in response to DNA damage or other problems. Checkpoints at the G1/S and G2/M transitions verify DNA integrity before allowing the cell to progress further. Faulty regulation of these cell cycle controllers can lead to uncontrolled cell division and cancer.
Mitosis and meiosis are two types of cell division. Mitosis produces two daughter cells that are identical to the parent cell and have the same number of chromosomes. Meiosis produces four haploid daughter cells that have half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell and are genetically different from each other. Meiosis is involved in sexual reproduction to create gametes, while mitosis produces somatic cells for growth and repair of organisms.
The cell cycle consists of interphase and the mitosis phase. Interphase includes G1, S, and G2 phases where the cell grows and duplicates its DNA. Mitosis is divided into prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase where the chromosomes and cell contents are separated into two daughter cells. Meiosis includes two cell divisions to produce four haploid cells from one diploid cell. Meiosis I separates homologous chromosomes and meiosis II separates sister chromatids.
This document discusses inheritance and variation in biology. It includes:
1. Two main causes of variation - inherited variation from parents' differing characteristics and environmental variation from surroundings.
2. Examples of selectively breeding cows to produce more milk and breeding apples for traits like taste and disease resistance.
3. Activities and investigations about tracking variation in traits like tomato mass within and between species.
The cell cycle is the process by which a cell duplicates its contents and divides into two daughter cells. It consists of four main phases - G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase, and M phase. The M phase includes both mitosis and cytokinesis. Mitosis is further divided into prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase where the chromosomes are aligned and separated. Cytokinesis then divides the cell into two daughter cells each with identical genetic material.
Here are the key events and sketches for each stage of the cell cycle:
Interphase: G1 phase
Main events: Cell grows and carries out normal functions
Sketch: 4 unreplicated chromosomes in nucleus
Interphase: S phase
Main events: DNA replication occurs; each chromosome now has 2 sister chromatids
Sketch: 4 chromosomes each with 2 attached sister chromatids
Mitosis: Prophase
Main events: Chromosomes condense and spindle begins to form
Sketch: 4 condensed chromosomes in nucleus; spindle starting to form
Mitosis: Metaphase
Main events: Chromosomes align at metaphase plate
Sketch: 4 chromosomes aligned at center of cell
Cells need to be replaced when they become damaged, worn out, or die. Some cells divide frequently through mitosis to produce two identical daughter cells, while other cells do not divide after specializing. There are two main phases of the cell cycle - interphase consisting of G1, S, and G2 phases where the cell grows and replicates its DNA, and the M phase where the cell divides through mitosis and cytokinesis. Mitosis involves separating duplicated chromosomes that align at the spindle equator in metaphase and separate in anaphase, followed by nuclear division in telophase and cell division in cytokinesis. The key differences between animal and plant cell division are that animal cells form a cleavage furrow while plant cells
The document discusses cell division, specifically mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis produces genetically identical daughter cells and is used for growth and repair. Meiosis produces haploid gametes through two cell divisions and leads to genetic variation in offspring. The cell cycle consists of interphase and mitosis. Interphase includes DNA replication and cell growth. Mitosis separates the duplicated chromosomes into two daughter nuclei.
cell cycle and control checkpoints throght cyclin cdk complexlamiakandil2
The cell cycle involves an ordered series of events that leads to cell division. It has two main functions: copying cellular components and DNA, and dividing the cell so components are distributed evenly in the daughter cells. The cell cycle consists of interphase, where the cell grows and duplicates its DNA, and M phase, where the cell divides. Interphase includes G1, S, and G2 phases, while M phase involves mitosis and cytokinesis. Checkpoints ensure the cell is ready to progress through the cycle. Deregulation of these checkpoints can lead to uncontrolled cell division and cancer.
The cell cycle consists of interphase and the M phase. Interphase includes G1, S, and G2 phases where the cell grows and duplicates its DNA. The M phase includes mitosis and cytokinesis where the cell divides into two identical daughter cells. Mitosis consists of prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase where the duplicated chromosomes separate and a new nuclear membrane forms around each set of chromosomes. Cytokinesis then divides the cytoplasm.
Cell division occurs through two main processes - mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis produces two identical daughter cells during normal growth and tissue repair. Meiosis produces four non-identical haploid daughter cells from a single diploid parent cell, which occurs during gamete formation. This introduces genetic diversity when gametes fuse during fertilization. The key events of meiosis include homologous chromosome pairing during prophase I and their subsequent separation in anaphase I, followed by two rounds of chromosome separation to form four unique haploid cells.
The document summarizes cell division and the two main types: mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis produces two identical daughter cells and is used for growth, repair, and replacement of somatic cells. It involves the phases of interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis. Meiosis produces four non-identical gamete cells through two rounds of division and is involved in sexual reproduction.
A detailed description of molecular level of cell cycle. Its regulation by different checkpoints. The Structure and Function of MPF. Description of MPF discovery.
The document discusses the cell cycle and how cells divide through mitosis and meiosis. It provides details on the following:
1) The cell cycle consists of interphase and the mitotic phase. Interphase includes the G1, S, and G2 phases where the cell grows and duplicates its DNA.
2) Mitosis and meiosis are types of cell division. Mitosis produces two identical daughter cells through chromosome duplication and separation. Meiosis reduces the chromosome number by half to produce gametes.
3) Chromosomes duplicate and separate through different phases - prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Sister chromatids separate in anaphase to move into two daughter cells
The document provides information about the cell cycle, which includes interphase, mitosis, and meiosis. It describes the stages of interphase, including Gap 1, S phase, and Gap 2. It then explains the stages of mitosis - prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis. Finally, it discusses the stages of meiosis 1 and meiosis 2, which produce haploid sex cells through two divisions. The document aims to describe the key phases and events of the cell cycle.
1. Cellular reproduction can occur through binary fission in prokaryotes and mitosis in eukaryotes, which produces genetically identical daughter cells. 2. Meiosis produces gametes with half the normal number of chromosomes which can fuse during fertilization to form genetically unique offspring. 3. The cell cycle is regulated by cyclin-dependent kinases and checkpoints ensure DNA replication and chromosome separation occur properly.
The cell cycle is the repeating series of growth and division that produces new cells. It consists of interphase, where the cell grows and DNA is replicated, and mitosis, where the cell divides into two daughter cells each with identical DNA. Chromosomes, made of DNA and proteins, condense during cell division and separate into each new cell, ensuring genetic continuity. The cycle controls cell growth, division, and death through regulated phases.
The document summarizes key aspects of the cell cycle and cell division. It discusses how cell division results in genetically identical daughter cells through DNA replication and chromosome separation. The mitotic phase alternates with interphase in the cell cycle. Mitosis is divided into prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. Cytokinesis then divides the cytoplasm. The cell cycle is regulated by a molecular control system involving cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases. Cancer cells exhibit deregulated cell cycle control and proliferation.
The document summarizes key aspects of the cell cycle and cell division. It discusses:
1) The cell cycle consists of interphase and the M phase where the cell divides. Interphase includes DNA replication in S phase to prepare for division.
2) Mitosis involves chromosome duplication and separation followed by cytokinesis to divide the cytoplasm. Meiosis produces gametes with half the normal chromosome number.
3) The mitotic spindle forms during cell division and uses microtubules to separate chromosomes between daughter cells.
Cell division occurs through mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis produces two daughter cells identical to the parent cell and is used for growth and repair. It has four phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. Meiosis produces gametes with half the number of chromosomes and occurs in two divisions. The first division separates homologous chromosomes and the second separates sister chromatids, resulting in four haploid cells. Both processes involve DNA replication followed by nuclear and cellular division.
The document summarizes key points about the cell cycle and cell division. It discusses the different phases of the cell cycle including interphase and the M phase. Interphase consists of G1, S, and G2 phases. The M phase refers to mitosis which is divided into prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. It also describes the process of cytokinesis in plant and animal cells. Meiosis is defined as a type of cell division that reduces chromosome number by half and involves two cell divisions - Meiosis I and Meiosis II. The stages of meiosis I including prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I and telophase I are outlined. The significance of mitosis
This document summarizes key concepts in genetics and cellular reproduction. It discusses heredity and variation, the cell cycle, DNA replication, mitosis and meiosis. The cell cycle consists of interphase and the mitotic phase, and interphase includes the G1, S, and G2 phases where the cell grows and its DNA is replicated. Mitosis and meiosis are two types of cell division. Mitosis produces two identical daughter cells through prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. Meiosis produces gametes through two divisions and involves homologous chromosomes separating.
Mitosis is cell division that produces two daughter cells identical to the parent cell. It occurs in somatic cells and involves the four phases of prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces gametes with half the number of chromosomes, and occurs in germ cells. Meiosis has two rounds of division, Meiosis I and Meiosis II, which separates homologous chromosomes and sister chromatids respectively to generate four haploid daughter cells from one diploid parent cell. Mitosis and meiosis are important for growth, tissue repair, sexual reproduction, and genetic variation.
The cell cycle is the series of events that occur in a cell from its formation to its division into two daughter cells. It consists of interphase, where the cell grows and duplicates its components, and the mitotic phase where the cell divides. During interphase, the cell replicates its DNA and organelles and grows in size. The mitotic phase consists of mitosis, where the nucleus divides, followed by cytokinesis, where the cell cytoplasm divides to form two daughter cells with identical DNA to the original parent cell. The cell cycle then continues as the daughter cells enter interphase.

A Visual Guide to 1 Samuel | A Tale of Two HeartsSteve Thomason
These slides walk through the story of 1 Samuel. Samuel is the last judge of Israel. The people reject God and want a king. Saul is anointed as the first king, but he is not a good king. David, the shepherd boy is anointed and Saul is envious of him. David shows honor while Saul continues to self destruct.
2. Cell Cycle
90% of the cell cycle is in interphase, other 10% is mitosis
(cellular division)
Interphase composed of 3 phases: G1, S, and G2
G1 (Gap 1) phase: cellular growth and protein synthesis, in
preparation for the S phase
S (Synthesis) phase: DNA synthesis/replication of each
chromosome in the cell, forms sister chromatids.
G2 (Gap 2) phase: cellular growth as well as protein & lipid
synthesis, in preparation for mitosis
Ex. Synthesis of proteins used to form mitotic spindle
3.
4. Mitosis
Cellular division of a cell
Makes exact copy of mother cell
Produces 2 identical daughter cells
Each product has same # of chromosomes
Purpose of mitosis?
To form a multicellular organism from a zygote
To replace dead or lost cells, such as skin and red
blood cells
5. Phases of Mitosis: (PMAT) + cytokinesis
Prophase: chromosomes become visible, begin to
condense
Prometaphase: nuclear envelope disappears and
chromosomes attach to mitotic spindle
Metaphase: chromosomes line up at metaphase
plate/equatorial plane
Anaphase: sister chromatids separate by kinetochores
Telophase: two daughter nuclei reform at the 2 poles
Cytokinesis (division of the cytoplasm) occurs
simultaneously
8. Mitosis in plant cells differ from
mitosis in animal cells
Plant cells do not form centrioles during mitosis
Plant cell walls are too rigid to form cleavage furrow
Forms cell plate instead
11. Some terms
Gene: portion of DNA that encodes RNA and
protein; determines your characteristics—freckles,
height, eye color…
Chromosomes: contain DNA and protein; compact
way of carrying all genetic info
Sister chromatids: copies of chromosomes joined
together
