What was the purpose of MITOSIS?
Daughter Cells
Daughter Cells
How Do The Daughter Cells Compare To Each Other?
They are the SAME!!!
Where does the process of mitosis occur in your body?
1. Nose2. Toes3. Heart4. Liver

NOSE, TOES, LIVER, AND HEART CELLS ARE ALSO KNOWN AS ….
Somatic Cells
What are Somatic Cells??Write it in your notes
What is another name for these somatic cells??
Body CellsWrite it in your notes
Which of the following is a somatic cell:
1. Liver 2. Cheek3. Kidney4. Spleen5. Muscle

Do Ya Know?
How many chromosomes do you have in each of your body/somatic
cells?1. 232. 523. 264. 46

Here are the somatic chromosome numbers for some other organisms…
Common Name Genus and Species Diploid ChromosomeNumber
Buffalo Bison bison 60Cat Felis catus 38
Cattle Bos taurus, B. indicus 60
Dog Canis familiaris 78Donkey E. asinus 62Goat Capra hircus 60Horse Equus caballus 64Human Homo sapiens 46Pig Sus scrofa 38Sheep Ovis aries 54
Based on this chart, does chromosome number have anything to do with animal complexity??

NOPE!!!
Do All The Cells In Your Body Have 46
Chromosomes?????
NOPE!!!
Can You Think Of Some Cells In Your Body That DO NOT Have 46
Chromosomes?
Sperm
Egg
Sperm and Egg Cells Are Known As The Reproductive Cells Or…
THE GAMETES!!
The male gamete is the sperm cell.
The female gamete is the egg cell.
What would it be like if we used our somatic/body cells for reproductive purposes???

Do You Want Your Baby To Have 92 Chromosomes In A Somatic/Body
Cell???
NOPE!!!WHY NOT?
What do organisms “do” to make sure the chromosome number in the offspring
doesn’t double from generation to generation?
Organisms reduce the chromosome number in HALF.
If humans reduce their chromosome number by one half, how many chromosomes would you expect to find in a sperm or egg cell?
23

Here is what should happen.

You’re almost finished with the vocabulary for today! The last word / concept we need to understand in the term…
HOMOLOGOUS CHROMOSOMES
This Is Called A Karyotype. WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT???
A KARYOTYPE SHOWS ALL 46 HUMAN CHROMOSOMES
WHERE DID YOU GET YOUR 46 CHROMOSOMES FROM????
23 FROM MOM
23 FROM DAD
STUDY THE KARYOTYPE. HOW ARE THE CHROMOSOMES GROUPED?
IN PAIRS!!!
THESE PAIRS OF CHROMOSOMES ARE CALLED….
HOMOLOGOUS PAIRS
What are HOMOLOGOUS
CHROMOSOMES??
LET’S FIND OUT!
HOMOLOGOUS CHROMOSOMES ARE CHROMOSOMES THAT ARE / HAVE THE…
SAME SIZE AND SHAPE
CENTROMERES IN THE SAME POSITION
GENES FOR THE SAME TRAITS IN THE SAME LOCATION
Hommie from MOM
Hommie from DAD
Centromere
Gene For Hair Color
Gene For Hair Color
Even though these HOMOLOGOUS CHROMOSOMES have the gene for hair color in the same location, does the actual GENE need to be the
same??
NOPE
Let’s Explore This Idea
Gene For Hair Color
Red Hair
Gene
Brown Hair
Gene
Cells that contain HOMOLOGOUS PAIRS are said to be….
DIPLOID CELLS
Your body cells / somatic cells are all diploid cells
You are looking at the nucleus of a cell. Is this cell DIPLOID?
How do you know?
You are looking at the nucleus of a cell. Is this cell Diploid?
How do you know?
This cell is considered HAPLOID.
What does it mean to be HAPLOID?
CELLS THAT DO NOT CONTAIN HOMOLOGOUS PAIRS
The symbol 2n is used to represent the diploid number of an organism. For example, the cell below has a diploid number of 6. You would write this …..
2n=6
The symbol n is used to represent the haploid number of an organism. For example, the cell below has a haploid number of 3. You would write this …..
n=3

THE PROCESS THAT TAKES A DIPLOID CELL AND REDUCES THE CHROMOSOME NUMBER IN HALF TO FORM A HAPLOID CELL IS CALLED…
