Essential Knowledge: In eukaryotes, heritable information is passed to the next generation via processes that include the cell cycle and mitosis OR meiosis plus fertilization
Objective: You will be able to describe the events that occur in the cell cycle. Do Now: Phase G1 S G2 M
The cell cycle is a complex set of stages that is highly regulated with checkpoints, which determine the ultimate fate of the cell. Interphase consists of three phases: G 1 : Growth S: Synthesis of DNA G 2 : Preparation of mitosis Mitosis alternates with interphase in the cell cycle

Cell Specialization When a cell specializes, it often enters into a stage where it no longer divides It can reenter the cell cycle when given appropriate cues Nondividing cells may exit the cell cycle; or hold at a particular stage in the cell cycle
The cell cycle is directed by internal controls or checkpoints. Internal and external signals provide stop-and-go signs at the checkpoints. Examples of control include: Mitosis-promoting factor (MPF) Cyclin and cyclin-dependent kinase Action of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)
Internal Controls or Checkpoints
Signaling and the Cell Cycle Internal and external signals provide stop and go signs at checkpoints Example of an internal signal: Mitosis-promoting factor (MPF) Examples of an external signal: Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)
Internal signal: MPF M G 1 S G 2 M G 1 S G 2 M G 1 MPF activity Cyclin concentration Time (a) Fluctuation of MPF activity and cyclin concentration during the cell cycle Cdk Degraded cyclin Cyclin is degraded G 2 checkpoint Cdk MPF Cyclin (b) Molecular mechanisms that help regulate the cell cycle
External signal: PDGF

Mitosis passes a complete genome from the parent cell to daughter cells. Mitosis occurs after DNA replication Mitosis followed by cytokinesis produces two genetically identical daughter cells Mitosis plays a role in growth, repair, and asexual reproduction. 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Meiosis During meiosis, homologous chromosomes are paired, with one homologue originating from the maternal and the other from the paternal parent. Orientation of the chromosome pairs is random with respect to the cell poles. Separation of the homologous chromosomes ensures that each gamete receives a haploid (1n) set of chromosomes composed of both maternal and paternal chromosomes. Look at p. 206-207 find where each of the statements above are occurring.

During meiosis, homologous chromatids exchange genetic material via a process called crossing over, which increases genetic variation in the resultant gametes
Crossing Over Crossing over results form homologous chromosomes exchanging segments of DNA Crossing over begins in prophase I
Crossing Over Prophase I of meiosis Pair of homologs Nonsister chromatids held together during synapsis

Fertilization involves the fusion of two gametes It increases genetic variation in populations by providing for new combinations of genetic information in the zygote. It restores the diploid number of chromosomes
Random Fertilization Each person can make 8.4 million different sex cells from independent assortment That means parents can produce a zygote with about 70 trillion diploid combinations That s without accounting for crossing over
