Cell Cycle. There are 3 parts of Interphase: G1 - The cell grows S - The cell copies its DNA (synthesis) G2 - The cell checks its systems before dividing. Interphase. MITOSIS. Start with one cell - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Interphase

• There are 3 parts of Interphase:– G1 - The cell grows– S - The cell copies its DNA (synthesis)– G2 - The cell checks its systems

before dividing

Page 9: Cell Cycle

MITOSIS

• Start with one cell• Ends with two new cells that are identical to the

original cell (with the same number of chromosomes)• New cells are called daughter cells

Meiosis

• Meiosis is a special process of cell division that results in the formation of gamete cells (sperm and egg)

• Each gamete cell has only half the number of chromosomes as the original parent cell.

Principles of Meiosis

• Independent Assortment – chromosomes separate into gamete cells “independently” of each other. The result is that each gamete cell has a different set of the parent’s chromosomes.

• Crossing Over – chromosomes can trade genes among themselves, so that a gene on one chromosome can end up on a different chromosome.
