List the events that occur in prophase.
ChromatiN becomes chromosomes Nuclear membrane dissolves Organelles not involved in mitosis disappear Centriole pairs separate and move to opposite poles, but remain connected with a network of microtubules called spindle fibers Once at poles the centrioles form additional spindles to reach and attach to cell membrane. These fibers are called ASTER FIBERS (ANCHORS)

Spindles attach to the centromere of the chromosomes and pull them to the MIDDLE of the cell called the EQUATOR

List the events of Cytokinesis in an ANIMAL CELL?
Division of the cytoplasm Cleaves the cell into 2 cells Animal Cells: At equator the cytoplasm invaginates to form a cleavage furrow The furrow continues to deepen until the cell is completely divided and two separate cells are formed Plant Cells: New cell plate (equatorial plate) forms at the equator
How is a plant cell different from an animal cell during cytokinesis?
Plant cells have a sturdy, strong cell wall and cannot pinch the cell membrane like the animal cell; instead, a new cell wall is formed at the equator by making a cell plate or equatorial plate out of vesicles.
What is cell division used for?
For growth To replace damaged or non-working cells Create new organism
What scientist contributed that all cells come from preexisting cells?
Virchow
What is a life cycle
formation of a new organism until that organism reproduces new organism(s)
Define cell cycle
From formation of a new cell, as a result of cell division, to that new cell's division to produce more new cells.
prokaryotic cell
cells without a nucleus (Ex: Bacteria)
Somatic Cell
Body Cell
Process that somatic cells divide
Mitosis
Sex cell
germ cell
Process that sex cells use to divide
Meiosis
two types of Reproduction
Asexual Sexual
Asexual reporduction
one organism divides to make two new IDENTICAL organisms
Types of asexual reproduction
binary fission budding
Sexual Reproduction
Two haploid cells fuse together to form a new organism that is a genetic combo of the parents.
