The female dragon had not been in the company of a male. The eggs developed without fertilization, in a process called parthenogenesis. DNA analysis confirmed that her offspring had genes only from her.

Biology and Society: Virgin Birth of a Dragon A second European Komodo dragon is now known to have reproduced asexually, via parthenogenesis, and sexually. 9 Figure 8.0 10 WHAT CELL REPRODUCTION ACCOMPLISHES Before a parent cell splits into two, it duplicates its, the structures that contain most of the cell s DNA. During cell division, each daughter cell receives one identical set of from the lone, original parent cell. 11 WHAT CELL REPRODUCTION ACCOMPLISHES Cell division plays important roles in the lives of organisms. Cell division replaces damaged or lost cells, permits growth, and allows for reproduction. 12

Human kidney cell LM Early human embryo Colorized SEM Some multicellular organisms, such as sea stars, can grow new individuals from fragmented pieces. Growing a new plant from a clipping is another example of asexual reproduction. Figure 8.1b 16 WHAT CELL REPRODUCTION ACCOMPLISHES 17 FUNCTIONS OF CELL DIVISION Asexual Reproduction In asexual reproduction, the lone parent and its offspring have identical genes. Mitosis is the type of cell division responsible for asexual reproduction and growth and maintenance of multicellular organisms. LM Division of an amoeba Regeneration of a sea star Growth of a clipping

WHAT CELL REPRODUCTION ACCOMPLISHES 18 THE CELL CYCLE AND MITOSIS 19 Sexual reproduction requires fertilization of an egg by a sperm using a special type of cell division called meiosis. Thus, sexually reproducing organisms use meiosis for reproduction and In a eukaryotic cell, most genes are located on in the cell nucleus and a few genes are found in DNA in mitochondria and chloroplasts. mitosis for growth and maintenance.

LM Chromosomes Eukaryotic Chromosomes 24 25 The DNA in a cell is packed into an elaborate, multilevel system of coiling and folding. Histones are proteins used to package DNA in eukaryotes.

The Cell Cycle 30 Figure 8.6 S phase (DNA synthesis; chromosome duplication) 31 A cell cycle is the ordered sequence of events that extend from the time a cell is first formed from a dividing parent cell Interphase: metabolism and growth (90% of time) G 1 G 2 Mitotic (M) phase: cell division (10% of time) to its own division into two cells. The cell cycle consists of two distinct phases: 1. interphase and 2. the mitotic phase. Cytokinesis (division of cytoplasm) Mitosis (division of nucleus) The Cell Cycle 32 The Cell Cycle 33 Most of a cell cycle is spent in interphase. During interphase, a cell performs its normal functions, The mitotic (M) phase includes two overlapping processes: 1. mitosis, in which the nucleus and its contents divide evenly into two daughter nuclei and doubles everything in its cytoplasm, and grows in size. 2. cytokinesis, in which the cytoplasm is divided in two.

Mitosis and Cytokinesis 34 Mitosis and Cytokinesis 35 During mitosis the mitotic spindle, a footballshaped structure of microtubules, guides the separation of two sets of daughter. Mitosis consists of four distinct phases: 1. Prophase Spindle microtubules grow from structures within the cytoplasm called centrosomes. 36 37 Bioflix Animation: Mitosis Video: Animal Mitosis

Cell wall Vesicles containing cell wall material Cell plate New cell wall Problems with the cell cycle control system can cause cancer Daughter cells

What Is Cancer? 54 What Is Cancer? 55 Cancer is a disease of the cell cycle. Cancer results from a genetic change in one or more genes that encode for proteins in the cell cycle control system Cancer cells do not respond normally to the cell cycle control system. Cancer cells can form tumors, abnormally growing masses of body cells. If the abnormal cells remain at the original site, the lump is called a benign tumor. The spread of cancer cells beyond their original site of origin is metastasis. Malignant tumors can spread to other parts of the body and interrupt normal body functions. A person with a malignant tumor is said to have cancer. Figure 8.9 56 Cancer Treatment 57 Tumor Glandular tissue Lymph vessels Blood vessel Cancer treatment can involve radiation therapy, which damages DNA and disrupts cell division, and chemotherapy, the use of drugs to disrupt cell division. A tumor grows from a single cancer cell. Cancer cells invade neighboring tissue. Metastasis: Cancer cells spread through lymph and blood vessels to other parts of the body.

Cancer Prevention and Survival Certain behaviors can decrease the risk of cancer: not smoking, exercising adequately, avoiding exposure to the sun, eating a high-fiber, low-fat diet, performing self-exams, and regularly visiting a doctor to identify tumors early. 58 MEIOSIS, THE BASIS OF SEXUAL REPRODUCTION Sexual reproduction depends on meiosis and fertilization and produces offspring that contain a unique combination of genes from the parents. 59 Figure 8.10 60 Homologous Chromosomes 61 Different individuals of a single species have the same number and types of. A human somatic cell is a typical body cell and has 46.

One duplicated chromosome Sister chromatids Homologous Chromosomes 64 Gametes and the Life Cycle of a Sexual Organism 65 Humans have two different sex, X and Y, and 22 pairs of matching, called autosomes. The life cycle of a multicellular organism is the sequence of stages leading from the adults of one generation to the adults of the next.

When aligned during metaphase I of meiosis, the side-by-side orientation of each homologous pair of is a matter of chance. Every chromosome pair orients independently of all of the others at metaphase I. For any species, the total number of chromosome combinations that can appear in the gametes due to independent assortment is 2 n, where n is the haploid number.

Random Fertilization 95 Figure 8.17 99 A human egg cell is fertilized randomly by one sperm, leading to genetic variety in the zygote. If each gamete represents one of 8,388,608 different chromosome combinations, at fertilization, humans would have 8,388,608 8,388,608, or more than 70 trillion different possible chromosome combinations. So we see that the random nature of fertilization adds a huge amount of potential variability to the offspring of sexual reproduction. Colorized LM

Hypothesis: Bdelloid rotifers have thrived for millions of years despite a lack of sexual reproduction. Question: Does this entire class of animals reproduce solely by asexual means? Prediction: Bdelloid rotifers would display much more variation in their pairs of homologous genes than most organisms. Experiment: Researchers compared sequences of a particular gene in bdelloid and non-bdelloid rotifers.

The Process of Science: Do All Animals Have Sex? Results: Non-bdelloid sexually reproducing rotifers had a nearly identical homologous gene, differing by only 0.5% on average. The two versions of the same gene in asexually reproducing bdelloid rotifers differed by 3.5 54%. Conclusion: Bdelloid rotifers have evolved for millions of years without any sexual reproduction. 108 Figure 8.19 109 LM When Meiosis Goes Awry 110 How Accidents during Meiosis Can Alter Chromosome Number 111 What happens when errors occur in meiosis? In nondisjunction, Such mistakes can result in genetic abnormalities that range from mild to fatal. the members of a chromosome pair fail to separate at anaphase, producing gametes with an incorrect number of. Nondisjunction can occur during meiosis I or II.

Sister chromatids fail to separate. If nondisjunction occurs, and a normal sperm fertilizes an egg with an extra chromosome, the result is a zygote with a total of 2n + 1.

Table 8.1 124 Evolution Connection: The Advantages of Sex Asexual reproduction conveys an evolutionary advantage when plants are sparsely distributed and unlikely to be able to exchange pollen or superbly suited to a stable environment. Asexual reproduction also eliminates the need to expend energy forming gametes and copulating with a partner. 125 Figure 8.24 126 Evolution Connection: The Advantages of Sex 127 Sexual reproduction may convey an evolutionary advantage by speeding adaptation to a changing environment or allowing a population to more easily rid itself of harmful genes.
