division of one cell reproduces a whole organims in
unicellular organisms
multicellular eukaryotes dpeend on cell division for
development from a fertilized egg, growth, repair
cell cycle
the life a cell from formation to its own division
genome
all dna in a cell
dna molecues in a cell are packaged into
chromosomes
what do eukaryotic chromosomes consist of
chromatin a complex of dna and protein that condenses during cell division
what type of cell has two sets of chromosomes vs half as many
somatic(nonreproductive) and gametes(sprem and egg)
what happens before cell division
dna is replicated and the chromosomes condense
cleavage furrow
dip right before cystokinesis(nuclear envelope and nucleolus begins to fowm during telophase)
mitotic spindle
made of microtubules that controls chromosome movement
when does centrosome replicate?
interphase forming two centrosomes that migrate to opposite ends of the cell during prophase and prometaphase
two types of regulatory proteins involved in cell cycle control
cylins and cyclin dependent kinases(cdks)activity of cdks rise and fall with changes in concentration of cyclin
MPF
is a cyclin cdk complex that triggers a cells passage past the g2 checkpoint into the m phase
g1 checkpoints
its the most important and if it isnt approved it goes to g0 no divisioj
external factors
growth facotrs(released by certain cells and stimulate cells to divide) PDGF is made by platlets(white blood cells)
anchorage dependence
celles require
density dependent inhibition
cells form a single layer
density dependent inhibition
cells divide to fill a gap and then stop
