Cell Growth and Reproduction Limits to cell growth DNA – can only control the needs of a small cell Cell Size - cell must have a low surface to volume ratio Cell Division – when a cell gets too large to control or function efficiently, cell division takes place Cell Cycle with growth, nuclear division, and cytoplasmic division Interphase G1 – growth phase – cell gets bigger and develops S – synthesis phase – DNA in nucleus is copied G2 – growth phase – more growing and developing; produce more organelles, enzymes, centrioles are replicated, etc. Mitosis nuclear division yields two daughter nuclei that are genetically identical used for growth and healing Prophase Chromatin condenses into chromosomes, 2 identical strands of DNA attached by a centromere Centrioles move to opposite ends of the cell Nuclear envelope and nucleolus disappear Spindle starts to appear Metaphase Chromosomes line up about midway between the centrioles Spindle fibers attach to chromosomes at centromeres Anaphase Centromeres are pulled apart as spindle fibers contracts Chromatids (half of a chromosome) are pulled in opposite directions Chromatids are pulled to opposite ends of the cell Telophase Chromatids complete journey to the ends of the cell Chromatin is formed as DNA elongates Nuclear envelope forms around each set of DNA Spindle disappears Nucleoli appear in each nucleus Cytokinesis Cytoplasmic Division Begins during anaphase Furrow / ring starts to develop in the middle of the cell membrane Cytokinesis In plants, you start to develop a cell plate Ring contracts until it completely separates the two new nuclei and about ? organelles into each new cell Control of the Cell Cycle cyclins (proteins) regulate cell growth Internal regulators – only move to the next phase of the cell cycle when the previous phase is complete Control of the Cell Cycle External regulators – if there is room, a cell divides; if neighboring cells are touching, cell growth is inhibited because space is scarc
