Willowridge Cell Cycle PMAT

2
The life of a cell
The cell spends most of its life just being alive and staying alive but then it needs to reproduce and enters the Mitosis stage.
Mitosis is how living organisms continue to live and reproduce more cells for growth, healing, repair and reproduction

MItosis : cell division
5
Cell basics and vocabulary first
6
Gametes are the sex cells the egg and the sperm

Gametes are the sex cells sperm and egg

simple Mitosis vs Meisois
Mitosis is the making of Somatic (body) cells. Notice the cells has two sets of chromosomes: 2N diploid
Meiosis is the making of Gamete s( sex cells) . Notice each cell has only one chromosome: 1N haploid.
12
What if????
What would happen if Gametes had two sets of chromosomes and they united?
Describe that cell on the next slide
13
IN Mitosis each daughter cell has 46 Chromosomes. Meiosis cells have 23 chromosomes
14
End products of Mitosis and Meiosis
The end product of Mitosis is 2 daughter cells of 2n for a total of 46 chromosomes= 23 pairs
The end product of Meiosis is 4 daughter cells of 1n each for a total of 23 chromosomes
How does a daughter cell in Meiosis become a 2n cell?
15
Open Ended
Describe what would happen to a new cell if it was made of two gamets that were diploid (2n) and think of what would happen with their offspring (children).
How many sets of chromosomes would each offspring have if the parents gametes were 2n?
16
Open Ended
Explain the difference between diploid and haploid cells to include the use of 1N and 2N
17
Open Ended
Why is necessary for gametes (sex cells) to be haploid (1n)?

Chromatid: Made of tight DNA strands
make a sketch and lable on your notes. 3 mins

Stages of Mitosis Gif
25
Make a large to medium Sketch and label this on your notes . The stages of Mitosis: the division of one cell in to two
Leave space below each one to add detail to each stage. 5 mins max

27
The phases of a cell
focus on Mitosis- Somatic cell 2n division

What happens in Prophase?
Pro- means before
30
add notes to your Diagram
31
What happens in Metaphase
Meta means middle
32
add notes to your Diagram
33
What happens in Anaphase?
34
add notes to your Diagram
35
What happens in Telophase? Telo means far as in Television: far vision
36

37
Cell differentiation
Cellular differentiation is the process of a cell changing from one cell type to another, typically from a less specialized type (stem cell) to a more specialized type (organ/tissue specific cell).
38
The purpose of cell diffentiation
The process of cell differentiation allows multi-cellular organisms to create uniquely functional cell types and body plans.
As living organism became multicellular we developed a need to have cells that did specialized work. Cells become tissues of the same cells then organs then organ systems
39
When cells divide they can become Stem Cells which can then become specialized cells. Stem cells are Undifferentiated until they are needed
40
Every cell from your body came from Stem cells.
Stem cells can have mistakes and stop growing and become cancer cells!
Cancer cells keep growing and dont stop growing.
41
Stem cell and heart repair
We are nearing the point of replacing any damaged cell/organ and living forever!
