Agenda: Cell Cycle and Division!
 Review of cells and organelles
 Activity: Catching some Killer Rays
Homework:
 Catching some Killer Rays Worksheet due
Tuesday 11/3/2015 for 30 Points
What do we already know?
• Prokaryotic VS Eukaryotic
cells
• Humans have Eukaryotic
cells
• All cells have organelles
(parts)
• Each organelle has a
function (job)
Catching Some Killer Rays
• Explain why skin cancer might be more prevalent in
California than in Arizona.
• In 2009, it was reported that new melanoma cases
(dangerous form of skin cancer) was identified nearly 75%
higher in men than women. Explain why some people
can survive skin cancer, while others can’t.

Cell Cycle Reading Review
1. Define cancer and give an example
2. Explain the role of the checkpoints in the cell cycle
3. Describe what the term “melanoma” means?
4. What does the “G” stand for in the cell cycle?
5. In which stage is the nuclei divided?
6. In which stage is the cytoplasm divided?
Cell Cycle & Cellular
Division learning goal
“I can describe the purpose, phases and processes of
cellular reproduction”! 
The Cell Cycle
http://www.nobel.se/medicine/laureates/2001/press.html
Cell Cycle cut-out
Cell Cycle
• G1- “Growth” phase. A cell grows quickly; largest part
of the cycle. The beginning phase of cell division.
• S- “Synthesis” phase; cell’s DNA is copied. Each
chromosome consists of 2 chromatids attached at the
centromere
• G2- “Second Growth” phase. Cell prepares for the
nucleus to divide. A cell will spend nearly 90% of its
life in stages G1 – G2!
• M- “Mitosis” phase; nucleus is divided into 2 nuceli.
Each nucleus has same number of chromosomes.
• C- “Cytokinesis” The cytoplasm divides and 2 NEW
CELLS ARE FORMED 

Each person in your group is responsible for
adding “scoops” (answers) to your plate, based on
each video.
You will place your “scoop”, on the proper section
of your plate, creating… a plate full of knowledge 

MITOSIS
When is mitosis used?
• Mitosis: reproduction of somatic (body) cells = cellular
division
• Diploid: full # of chromosomes (2n) = 46
• Haploid: half # of chromosomes (n) = 23
• Somatic Cells (body cells) are Diploid
• Gametes (sex cells) are Haploid
Stages of Mitosis
•Prophase
•Metaphase
•Anaphase
•Telophase
Interphase: The cell prepares for division
• What happens…?
• DNA replicates
• Organelles replicate
• Cell increases in size
Interphase

Plant Cell
Photographs from: http://www.bioweb.uncc.edu/biol1110/Stages.htm
Prophase: The cell prepares for nuclear division
• What happens…?
• DNA condenses into
chromosomes, spindles
form & nuclear envelope
dissolves. The
chromosomes
become visible
Prophase
Animal Cell
Plant Cell
Photographs from: http://www.bioweb.uncc.edu/biol1110/Stages.htm
Metaphase: The cell prepares
chromosomes for division
• What happens…?
• Chromosomes line
up at the center of
the cell
• Spindle fibers attach
from daughter cells
to chromosomes at
the centromere
Metaphase
Animal Cell
Plant Cell
Photographs from: http://www.bioweb.uncc.edu/biol1110/Stages.htm
Anaphase: The chromosomes divide
• What happens…?
• Spindle fibers pull
chromosomes apart
• ½ of each chromosome
(called chromatid)
moves toward opposite
pole
Anaphase

Plant Cell
Photographs from: http://www.bioweb.uncc.edu/biol1110/Stages.htm
Telophase: The cytoplasm divides
• What happens…?
• DNA spreads out
• 2 nuclei form
• Spindles dissolve
• Cell membrane
pinches in and
forms the 2 new
daughter cells
Telophase

Cytokinesis: Final step in division
• What happens…?
• Cytokinesis occurs when
the cleavage furrow
appears
• Division of the cytoplasm
• 2 identical daughter cells
