_____ in plant cells involves the formation of a cell plate.

Cytokinesis

When a cell plate divides into 2 cells. This animation illustrates the events of _____.

Cytokinesis as it occurs in Plant Cells

Cytokinesis in plant cells

*Vesicles from the Golgi apparatus move along microtubules, coalesce at the plane of cell division, and form a cell plate. *The cell plate consists of the plasma membrane and cell wall that will eventually separate the two daughter cells.

As the chromosomes of a parent cell are duplicated and distributed to the two daughter cells during cell division, the structure of the chromosomes changes.

1. N Y Y Y N 2. N N N Y Y 3. N Y Y Y Y

Roles of the mitotic spindle

1. Will this cell elongate during mitosis? (yes) 2. Will the sister chromatids separate from each other? (yes) 3. Will the chromosomes move to the poles of the cell? (no)

Cell Cycle Phases: Interphase consists of the G1, S, and G2 subphases, and that the M phase consists of mitosis and cytokinesis.

A. Non dividing cells exit cell cycle B. At this point, cell commits to go through the cycle. C. DNA replicates D. Centrosome replicates E. Mitotic spindle begins to form. F. Cell divides, forming two daughter cells.

In ______ , the cohesin proteins are cleaved, and the kinetochores move toward the poles of the cell, separating the sister chromatids.

Anaphase

When the separate chromosomes are being pulled from one place to another? This animation illustrates the events of _____.

Anaphase

How do cancer cells differ from normal cells?

Cancer cells may be immortal.

In animal cells ______ involves the formation of a cleavage furrow

Cytokinesis

What phase is this?

Cytokinesis

_____ is a carcinogen that promotes colon cancer.

Fat (A diet high in fat increases the risk of both colon and breast cancer.)

Cells will usually divide if they receive the proper signal at a checkpoint in which phase of the cell cycle?

G1

Once a cell passes the ______ checkpoint, it usually completes the cell cycle--that is, it divides.

G1

During _______ chromosomes align along the metaphase plate.

Metaphase

When chromosomes align laterally (along the metaphase plate: imaginary line located midway between the poles of the duplicated chromosomes and the original chromosomes), before they separate. This animation illustrates the events of _____.

Metaphase

_________,marked by the alignment of chromsomes along the metaphase plate, is brought about by kinetochores aligning and then remaining motionless relative to the poles of the cell.

Metaphase

Which of these phases encompasses all of the stages of mitosis but no other events?

Mitosis

In_____ is marked by fragmentation of the nuclear envelope, expansion of the spindle into the nuclear region, and attachment of some spindle fibers to the chromosomes via the kinetochores.

Prometaphase

The events of _________ include the attachment of spindle fibers to kinetochores.

Prometaphase

Events of________ include the condensation of chromatin and the dispersal of nucleoli.

Prophase

In ______ the microtubules of the spindle apparatus begin to assemble from individual tubulin subunits. As the identical chromatids of each pair of sister chromatids condense during this stage, they are held together by cohesin proteins.

Prophase

When the chromosomes become visible? This animation illustrates the events of _____.

Prophase

Changes in DNA structure during the cell cycle:

Sister chromatids form when DNA replicates in the S phase. The sister chromatids become individual chromosomes once they separate in early anaphase. Similarly, the cellular DNA content doubles in the S phase when the DNA replicates. However, the cell's DNA content does not return to its normal (undoubled) levels until after cytokinesis is complete and two daughter cells have formed. The condensation state of the DNA is not related to the presence or absence of sister chromatids. The DNA condenses in prophase and remains condensed until after the sister chromatids separate and the new daughter cells begin to form. In late telophase/cytokinesis, the emphasis shifts to cell growth and DNA replication for the next cell cycle. For these processes to occur, the DNA needs to be de-condensed so it is accessible to the cellular machinery involved in transcription.

As _______ proceeds, the kinetochore microtubules of the spindle disassemble. As the chromosomes reach the poles of the cell, the nuclear envelopes of the two new daughter nuclei form.

Telophase

During_______ both nuclear envelopes and nucleoli re-form.

Telophase

Phases of the cell cycle

The first step in preparing for division is to replicate the cell's DNA in the S phase. In the G2 phase, the centrosome replicates. In early M phase, the centrosomes move away from each other toward the poles of the cell, in the process organizing the formation of the mitotic spindle. At the end of the M phase when mitosis is complete, the cell divides (cytokinesis), forming two genetically identical daughter cells.

Spindle fibers attach to kinetochores during _____.

prometaphase (Attachment of spindle fibers to kinetochores is one of the events of pro metaphase.)

The key structures involved in mitosis of an animal cell

The two SISTER CHROMATIDS of each duplicated chromosome beginning to attach to the MITOTIC SPINDLE by means of their KINETOCHORES. The CENTROSOMES anchor the MIT at opposite ends of the cell. CENTROMERE is the region of the chromosome where chromatids are most closely attached to each other.

Kinetochores

They are sites at which microtubules attach to chromosomes.

Why is it difficult to observe individual chromosomes with a light microscope during interphase?

They have uncoiled to form long, thin strands.

Centromeres divide and sister chromatids become full-fledged chromosomes during _____.

anaphase (During anaphase, sister chromatids separate and daughter chromosomes migrate to opposite poles.)

Comparing chromosome separation in bacteria and eukaryotes

bacteria only: *Chromosome separation begins at the origin of replication on DNA. Eukaryotes only: * Before separation, duplicated chromosomes condense. * Nuclear envelope fragments, permitting chromosome separation. * 2 copies of the duplicated chromosome are attached at their centromeres before separation. Both Bacteria and Eukariotes: * Chromosomes replicate before cell division. * Replicated chromosomes separate by attaching to some other structural feature of the cell.

The presence of a cell wall prevents the cell from dividing by constriction

bacteria: FALSE animals: FALSE plants: TRUE

Tubulin or tubulin-like molecules function in binary fission (in bacteria) or cytokinesis (in animals and plants).
