    MITOSIS

    Uploaded by

    Edryan Lambiquit
    Mitosis is the process by which a parent cell divides into two daughter cells. It occurs in multiple phases - prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. During these phases, the parent cell's chromosomes are duplicated and then separated, with one copy going to each new daughter cell. Mitosis is important for growth, tissue repair, asexual reproduction, and replacing dead cells. It allows multicellular organisms to develop from one cell and maintains proper cell numbers and DNA/RNA amounts in the body.

    MITOSIS

    CELL CYCLE
    The process a cell goes through each
    time it divides. The cell cycle consists
    of a series of steps during which the
    chromosomes and other cell material
    double to make two copies. The cell
    then divides into two daughter cells,
    each receiving one copy of the
    doubled material.
    WHAT IS MITOSIS
    The process by which a single
    parent cell divides to make two
    new daughter cells. Each daughter
    cell receives a complete set of
    chromosomes from the parent cell.
    This process allows the body to
    grow and replace cells.
    PHASES OF MITOSIS
    PROPHASE
    Prophase is the first phase of mitosis, the process that separates the
    duplicated genetic material carried in the nucleus of a parent cell into two
    identical daughter cells. Prophase is followed by the second phase of
    mitosis, known as prometaphase.

    During prophase:

    - Nuclear membrane disappears.


    - 2 sets of Chromosomes condensed.
    - Centrosomes moving opposite directions.
    - Spindle fibers forms.
    PROMETAPHASE
    Prometaphase is the second phase of mitosis, the process that separates
    the duplicated genetic material carried in the nucleus of a parent cell into
    two identical daughter cells.

    During Prometaphase

    - Nuclear membrane breaks down


    - Centrosomes moving opposite directions.
    - Chromosomal aligned between the spindle poles.
    METAPHASE
    Metaphase is a stage during the process of cell division (mitosis or meiosis).
    Normally, individual chromosomes are spread out in the cell nucleus.

    During metaphase

    - Chromosomes lined up in the middle of the cell.


    - Centrosomes reached both poles.
    - Spindle fiber is longer.
    ANAPHASE
    Anaphase is the stage of mitosis after the process of
    metaphase, when replicated chromosomes are split
    and the newly-copied chromosomes are moved to
    opposite poles of the cell.
    TELOPHASE
    Telophase is the fifth and final phase of mitosis, the
    process that separates the duplicated genetic
    material carried in the nucleus of a parent cell into
    two identical daughter cells. Telophase begins once
    the replicated, paired chromosomes have been
    separated and pulled to opposite sides, or poles, of
    the cell.
    SIGNIFICANCE OF MITOSIS

    * Mitosis is important for Asexual reproduction indirectly.


    * It allows the sexually reproducing organism to grow and
    develop from a single cell to sexually mature individual.
    * This allows organism to continue to reproduce through the
    generation.
    * The mitosis helps to maintaining proper size.
    * It helps in the maintenance of equilibrium in the amout of DNA
    and RNA in the cell
    * Helps in repairing injured cells
    * Brings about replacement of dead cells by new cells
    APPLICATION OF MITOSIS
    Numerous biological contexts use mitosis, a cellular process of cell division.
    It is essential for development in the areas of growth, tissue repair, asexual
    and sexual reproduction, and genetics, biotechnology, and cancer
    research.For example, mitosis enables multicellular organisms to grow and
    develop, to regenerate tissues after injury, to create genetically identical
    cells for cloning and gene editing, and to comprehend genetic mutations
    and diseases. It has numerous applications in science and technology and
    is essential to many biological processes.
