CELL DIVISION

BY: RACHEL LAWSON

Binary fission is the process where prokaryotic cells (bacteria) divides. This process takes place during reproduction.

Binary Fission

Mitosis is the process in which all cells are formed besides sex cells.

Interphase is the place where cells spend most of their time. During this phase many biochemical reactions, DNA transcription, and translation and DNA replication. In G1 the cell grows, S DNA copy's, G2 cell continues to grow.

Interphase

Prophase

Prophase is the process in which the nucleus disappears, chromatin condenses into chromosomes, and the spindle forms.

Metaphase is the process in which the chromosomes align in the metaphase plate (equator).

Metaphase

Anaphase is the process where the sister chromatids move apart.

Telophase is the process where the new nuclear envelope forms, chromosomes unfold back into chromatin, nucleoli reappears, and the cell continues to elongate.

Cytokinesis is the last step of the cell cycle. In this step the daughter cells divide.

Meiosis is the process in which gametes are formed. This is only for the creation of sex cells.

Diploid cells are cells that have two copies of each chromosome while haploid cells only have one copy of each chromosome.

Gametes are reproductive cells such as sperm and eggs.

Mitosis is different from meiosis in several ways. One way is the number of daughter cells they produce, mitosis produces 2 diploid daughter cells while meiosis produces 4 haploid daughter cells.

They are also different because the genetic relationship of daughter cell to parent cell and the relationship of daughter cell to each other of meiosis is not identical while mitosis is identical.

The last difference between meiosis and mitosis is that mitosis is asexual reproduction while meiosis is sexual reproduction.
