Document Summary

Add new cells to a growing organism (ex: puppy) Make a copy of all of its genetic information. Perform safety checks to make sure everything has been duplicated. Make the proteins that will help the cell to divide. Spindle forms as centrosomes move to opposite poles. Centromeres split as sister chromatids separate and move to opposite poles of cell. Nuclear envelope and nucleolus form at each pole. Mitosis creates 2 identical copies of the original cell. Meiosis generates 4 completely new, genetically unique cells (from one cell) More likely for a species to survive disease. Cells divide at a specific time in their life cycle. Paired homologous chromosomes align along equator of cell. Find each other, stay associated and there are pairs of homologous chromosomes. Homologous chromosomes separate to opposite poles of cell. Swap bits of gene together once they find each other (homologous pair of chromosomes)
