Why Are Cells Small?
• As cells get bigger, more of its cytoplasm is located farther from the cell membrane.
• If a cell gets too big, it would take too long to get materials into the cell and too long to get waste out of the cell.
• Smaller cells are more efficient!

Cell Division
• All cells come from other living cells.
• You (and other living things) grow because your cells get bigger and your number of cells gets larger.– A single cell divides into two cells. – Two cells divide into four, etc.
• Cells must also divide because old cells die and need new cells to replace them!

The Cell Cycle
• Cell cycle – regular sequence of growth and division that cells undergo.
• Divided into three main stages:– Interphase – cell grows into its mature size, makes a
copy of its DNA, and prepares for division.– Mitosis – one copy of the DNA is distributed into each
of its daughter cells– Cytokinesis – the cytoplasm divides and organelles are
distributed into the two new cells

Interphase
• Interphase is made up of 3 separate parts.– G1– S – G2
• Interphase is the stage that the cell is in for most of its life!

Phases of Interphase

G1 – Growth Phase
• Cell doubles in size• Cell produces all of the structures it needs to
carry out its functions
• Think of this phase as the cell just living its normal life.

S – DNA Copying
• Cell makes a copy of its DNA• This happens because the new cell needs all of
the directions for its function and survival.
• Think of this phase as placing the DNA on a copy machine.

G2 – Preparation
• Cell prepares to divide • Cell produces structures needed for cell
division
• Think of this phase as the cell double checking everything it needs to divide.
