Chapter 12 The Cell Cycle PowerPoint Lectures for Biology Eighth Edition Neil Campbell and Jane Reece Overview The Key Roles of Cell Division 100 m a Reproduction An amoeba a single celled eukaryote is dividing into two cells Each new cell will be an individual organism LM 200 m 20 m b Growth and development c Tissue renewal These dividing This micrograph shows a bone marrow cells arrow will sand dollar embryo shortly give rise to new blood cells LM after the fertilized egg divided forming two cells LM Cellular Organization of the Genetic Material The DNA molecules in a cell Are packaged into chromosomes Figure 12 3 50 m 0 5 m A eukaryotic cell has multiple chromosomes one of which is represented here Before duplication each chromosome has a single DNA molecule Once duplicated a chromosome consists of two sister chromatids connected at the centromere Each chromatid contains a copy of the DNA molecule Mechanical processes separate the sister chromatids into two chromosomes and distribute them to two daughter cells Figure 12 4 Chromosome duplication including DNA synthesis Centromere Separation of sister chromatids Centromeres Sister chromatids Sister chromatids The cell cycle consists

has started The cell plate which will divided the cytoplasm in two is growing toward the perimeter of the parent cell Binary Fission Origin of replication Cell wall Plasma Membrane E coli cell 1 Chromosome replication begins Soon thereafter one copy of the origin moves rapidly toward the other end of the cell 2 Replication continues One copy of the origin is now at each end of the cell 3 Replication finishes The plasma membrane grows inward and new cell wall is deposited 4 Two daughter cells result Figure 12 11 Two copies of origin Origin Bacterial Chromosome Origin The Evolution of Mitosis A hypothetical sequence for the evolution of mitosis a Prokaryotes During binary fission the origins of the daughter chromosomes move to opposite ends of the cell The mechanism is not fully understood but proteins may anchor the daughter chromosomes to specific sites on the plasma membrane b Dinoflagellates In unicellular protists called dinoflagellates the nuclear envelope remains intact during cell division and the chromosomes attach to the nuclear envelope Microtubules pass through the nucleus inside cytoplasmic tunnels reinforcing the spatial orientation of the nucleus which then divides in a fission process reminiscent of bacterial division c Diatoms In another group of unicellular protists the diatoms the nuclear envelope also remains intact during cell division But in these organisms the microtubules form a spindle within the nucleus Microtubules separate the chromosomes and the nucleus splits into two daughter nuclei d Most eukaryotes In most other eukaryotes including plants and animals the spindle forms outside the nucleus and the nuclear envelope breaks down during mitosis Microtubules separate the chromosomes and the nuclear envelope then re forms

envelope Evidence for Cytoplasmic Signals Molecules present in the cytoplasm Regulate progress through the cell cycle EXPERIMENTS In each experiment cultured mammalian cells at two different phases of the cell cycle were induced to fuse Experiment 2 Experiment 1 S G1 M S M G1 RESULTS S When a cell in the S phase was fused with a cell in G1 the G1 cell immediately entered the S phase DNA was synthesized M When a cell in the M phase was fused with a cell in G1 the G1 cell immediately began mitosis a spindle formed and chromatin condensed even though the chromosome had not been duplicated CONCLUSION The results of fusing cells at two different phases of the cell cycle suggest that molecules present in the Figure 12 13 A B cytoplasm of cells in the S or M phase control the progression of phases The Cell Cycle Control System The sequential events of the cell cycle Are directed by a distinct cell cycle control system which is
