What is Cell cycle
The cell cycle is a process in which a cell
grows and divides to create a copy of itself.
o All cells are derived from pre-existing cells.
o New cells are produced for growth and to
replace damaged or old cells
o Differs in prokaryotes (bacteria) and
eukaryotes (protists, fungi, plants, &
animals)
Cell ReproductionCell Reproduction
Types of Cell
Reproduction
o Asexual reproduction involves a single cell
dividing to make 2 new, identical daughter
cells
o Mitosis & binary fission are examples of
asexual reproduction
o Sexual reproduction involves two cells (egg &
sperm) joining to make a new cell (zygote)
that is NOT identical to the original cells
o Meiosis is an example
Cell Division in Prokaryotes
Cell Division in Prokaryotes
o Prokaryotes such as
bacteria divide into 2
identical cells by the
process of binary
fission
o Single chromosome
makes a copy of itself
o Cell wall forms between
the chromosomes

Editor's Notes

  • #40: Replication is the process of duplicating chromosome. The new copy of a chromosome is formed by DNA synthesis during S-phase. The chromosome copies are called sister chromatids. Sister chromatids are held together at the centromere.
