are encoded in the
DNA, so each new
cell must get a
complete set of the
DNA molecules

Chromosomes
✓All eukaryotic cells store
genetic information in
chromosomes
✓Most eukaryotes have between

their body cells
✓Human body cells have 46
chromosomes or 23 identical

Eukaryotic Chromosomes
✓Each chromosome is composed of a
single, tightly coiled DNA molecule
✓Chromosomes can’t be seen when
cells aren’t dividing and are called
chromatin

Five Phases of the Cell
Cycle
✓G1 - primary growth phase
✓S – synthesis; DNA replicated
✓G2 - secondary growth phase
collectively the 3 stages above
are called interphase
✓M - mitosis
✓C - cytokinesis
copyright cmassengale 16
Interphase - G1
Stage
✓1st growth stage after cell
division
✓Cells mature by making more
cytoplasm & organelles
✓Cell carries on its normal
metabolic activities
copyright cmassengale 17
Interphase – S
Stage
✓Synthesis stage
✓DNA is copied or

Interphase – G2
Stage
✓2nd Growth Stage
✓Occurs after DNA has been copied
✓All cell structures needed for
division are made (e.g. centrioles)
✓Both organelles & proteins are
synthesized

Types of Cell Reproduction
✓Asexual reproduction involves a single
cell dividing to make 2 new, identical
daughter cells
✓Mitosis & binary fission are examples
of asexual reproduction
✓Sexual reproduction involves two cells
(egg & sperm) joining to make a new
cell (zygote) that is NOT identical to
the original cells
✓Meiosis is an example

Multicellular Life
● Tissues are groups of
cells that work
together to perform
a similar function.
● Organs are groups of
tissues that work
together to perform
a specific function or
related functions.
● Organ Systems are
groups of organs that
carry out similar
functions.

Adult Stem Cells (Somatic Stem Cells)
-undifferentiated cells found all over the body among
specialized cells
Advantages: Disadvantages:
-Can be taken -few in number
from a patient, -difficult to
grown in isolate
culture, and put -sometimes
back into the tricky to grow
patient, avoiding -may also
transplant contain more
rejection.
DNA
-Avoid ethical
abnormalities
issues.
Adult Stem Cells treated with the right combination of molecules
may give rise to a completely different type of tissue. This is called
transdifferentiation, which remains an active area of research.
77
Embryonic Stem Cells
-most come from donated embryos grown in a clinic.
-an embryo is a fertilized egg

About Meiosis
✓Preceded by interphase which
includes chromosome replication
✓Two meiotic divisions --- Meiosis
I and Meiosis II
✓Called Reduction- division
✓Original cell is diploid (2n)
✓Four daughter cells produced that
are monoploid (1n)
copyright cmassengale
80
About Meiosis
✓Daughter cells contain half the
number of chromosomes as the
original cell
✓Produces gametes (eggs & sperm)
✓Occurs in the testes in males
(Spermatogenesis)
✓Occurs in the ovaries in females
(Oogenesis)
copyright cmassengale 81
About Meiosis
✓ Startwith 46 double stranded
chromosomes (2n)
✓After 1 division - 23 double
stranded chromosomes (n)
✓After 2nd division - 23 single
stranded chromosomes (n)
✓ Occurs in our germ cells that
produce gametes
copyright cmassengale 82
Why Do we Need Meiosis?
✓It is the fundamental basis of
sexual reproduction
✓Two haploid (1n) gametes are
brought together through
fertilization to form a diploid (2n)
zygote
copyright cmassengale 83
Fertilization – “Putting it all
together”
2n = 6
1n =3

Replication of Chromosomes
✓Replication is the
process of
duplicating a
chromosome
✓Occurs prior to Occurs in
division Interphase
✓Replicated copies
are called sister
chromatids
✓Held together at
