Document Summary

Attached at 1 site to cell membrane. Divided by binary fission (same as what mitochondria does) Haploid (1n: 1 copy of each chromosome. Diploid (2n: 2 copies of each chromosome. Interphase: growth = gap phases (g1 & g2) g1 = resting stage, synthesis = dna replication (s) Cells can only grow large before becoming dysfunctional: surface to body/volume ratio. Includes: dna replication, dna/organelles into 2 cells (mitosis, splitting off cell (cytokinesis) Purpose of mitosis create new, genetically identical cells. Somatic cells = anything that"s not egg or sperm growth replacement repair. Preparation for mitosis chromosomes replicate in s phase of interphase. Mitotic spindle forms: polar, opposite sides of cell. Sister chromatids lineup in center of cell. Sister chromatids pulled apart to ends of cell. Protective cap- each cell division less and less of cap. As cells divide over time, telomeres shorten, and eventually cell division stops. Cancer unstrained cell growth/division, treatment: kill or slow mitosis.
