Rain Forest Rescue
• Scientists in Hawaii
– Have attempted to “rescue” endangered species from extinction
![Page 3: Chapter 8 Cellular Basis Of Reproduction And Inheritance](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815e2a550346895dcc8348/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

• The goals of these scientists were
– To promote reproduction to produce more individuals of specific endangered plants
Cyanea kuhihewa

• In sexual reproduction
– Fertilization of sperm and egg produces offspring
• In asexual reproduction
– Offspring are produced by a single parent, without the participation of sperm and egg

CONNECTIONS BETWEEN CELL DIVISION AND REPRODUCTION
8.1 Like begets like, more or less
• Some organisms reproduce asexually
– And their offspring are genetic copies of the parent and of each other

• Other organisms reproduce sexually
– Creating a variety of offspring

8.2 Cells arise only from preexisting cells
• Cell division is at the heart of the reproduction of cells and organisms
– Because cells come only from preexisting cells

• As the cell replicates its single chromosome, the copies move apart
– And the growing membrane then divides the cells

THE EUKARYOTIC CELL CYCLE AND MITOSIS
8.4 The large, complex chromosomes of eukaryotes duplicate with each cell division
• A eukaryotic cell has many more genes than a prokaryotic cell
– And they are grouped into multiple chromosomes in the nucleus
![Page 11: Chapter 8 Cellular Basis Of Reproduction And Inheritance](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815e2a550346895dcc8348/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

• Individual chromosomes contain a very long DNA molecule associated with proteins– And are visible only when the cell is in the
process of dividing• If a cell is not undergoing division
– Chromosomes occur in the form of thin, loosely packed chromatin fibers
Figure 8.4A
![Page 12: Chapter 8 Cellular Basis Of Reproduction And Inheritance](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815e2a550346895dcc8348/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

• Before a cell starts dividing, the chromosomes replicate
– Producing sister chromatids joined together at the centromere

• During interphase
– Chromosomes duplicate and cell parts are made
• During the mitotic phase
– Duplicated chromosomes are evenly distributed into two daughter nuclei
![Page 16: Chapter 8 Cellular Basis Of Reproduction And Inheritance](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815e2a550346895dcc8348/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

8.6 Cell division is a continuum of dynamic changes
• In mitosis, after the chromosomes coil up
– A mitotic spindle moves them to the middle of the cell
![Page 17: Chapter 8 Cellular Basis Of Reproduction And Inheritance](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815e2a550346895dcc8348/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings
• The sister chromatids then separate
– And move to opposite poles of the cell, where two nuclei form
• Cytokinesis, in which the cell divides in two
– Overlaps the end of mitosis
![Page 18: Chapter 8 Cellular Basis Of Reproduction And Inheritance](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815e2a550346895dcc8348/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

8.8 Anchorage, cell density, and chemical growth factors affect cell division
• Most animal cells divide
– Only when stimulated, and some not at all
![Page 23: Chapter 8 Cellular Basis Of Reproduction And Inheritance](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815e2a550346895dcc8348/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Cells anchor todish surfaceand divide.
When cells haveformed a completesingle layer, theystop dividing (density-dependent inhibition).
If some cells arescraped away, theremaining cells divideto fill the dish with asingle layer and thenstop (density-dependentinhibition).
• In laboratory cultures
– Most normal cells divide only when attached to a surface
• They continue dividing
– Until they touch one another

• Growth factors
– Are proteins secreted by cells that stimulate other cells to divide
After forming asingle layer,cells havestopped dividing.
Providing anadditional supply ofgrowth factorsstimulatesfurther cell division.

8.9 Growth factors signal the cell cycle control system
• A set of proteins within the cell
– Controls the cell cycle

• Cancer cells
– divide excessively to form masses called tumors

MEIOSIS AND CROSSING OVER
8.12 Chromosomes are matched in homologous pairs
• The somatic (body) cells of each species
– Contain a specific number of chromosomes
• For example human cells have 46
– Making up 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes
![Page 35: Chapter 8 Cellular Basis Of Reproduction And Inheritance](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815e2a550346895dcc8348/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

8.13 Gametes have a single set of chromosomes
• Cells with two sets of chromosomes
– Are said to be diploid
• Gametes, eggs and sperm, are haploid
– With a single set of chromosomes
![Page 37: Chapter 8 Cellular Basis Of Reproduction And Inheritance](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815e2a550346895dcc8348/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

8.14 Meiosis reduces the chromosome number from diploid to haploid
• Meiosis, like mitosis
– Is preceded by chromosome duplication
• But in meiosis
– The cell divides twice to form four daughter cells
![Page 39: Chapter 8 Cellular Basis Of Reproduction And Inheritance](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815e2a550346895dcc8348/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings
• The first division, meiosis I
– Starts with synapsis, the pairing of homologous chromosomes
• In crossing over
– Homologous chromosomes exchange corresponding segments
• Meiosis I separates each homologous pair
– And produce two daughter cells, each with one set of chromosomes
![Page 40: Chapter 8 Cellular Basis Of Reproduction And Inheritance](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815e2a550346895dcc8348/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings
• Meiosis II is essentially the same as mitosis
– The sister chromatids of each chromosome separate
– The result is a total of four haploid cells
![Page 41: Chapter 8 Cellular Basis Of Reproduction And Inheritance](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815e2a550346895dcc8348/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

8.16 Independent orientation of chromosomes in meiosis and random fertilization lead to varied offspring
• Each chromosome of a homologous pair
– Differs at many points from the other member of the pair

ALTERATIONS OF CHROMOSOME NUMBER AND STRUCTURE
8.19 A karyotype is a photographic inventory of an individual’s chromosomes
• A karyotype
– Is an ordered arrangement of a cell’s chromosomes

A bloodculture is centrifuged to separate the blood cells from the culture fluid.
1 The fluid is discarded, and a hypotonic solution is mixed with the cells. This makes the red blood cells burst. The white blood cells swell but do not burst, and their chromosomes spread out.
2 Another centrifugation step separates the swollen whiteblood cells. The fluid containing the remnants of the red blood cells is poured off. A fixative (preservative) is mixedwith the white blood cells. A drop of the cell suspension is spread on a microscope slide, dried, and stained.
3
The slide is viewed with a microscope equipped with a digital camera. A photograph of the chromosomes is entered into a computer, which electronically arranges them by size and shape.
4 The resulting display is the karyotype. The 46 chromosomes here include 22 pair of autosomes and 2 sex chromosomes, X and Y. Although difficult to discern in the karyotype, each of the chromosomes consists of two sister chromatids lying very close together (see diagram).

8.21 Accidents during meiosis can alter chromosome number• Abnormal chromosome count is a result of
nondisjunction– The failure of homologous pairs to separate
during meiosis I– The failure of sister chromatids to separate
during meiosis II

8.22 Abnormal numbers of sex chromosomes do not usually affect survival
• Nondisjunction can also produce gametes with extra or missing sex chromosomes
– Leading to varying degrees of malfunction in humans but not usually affecting survival

8.23 Alterations of chromosome structure can cause birth defects and cancer
• Chromosome breakage can lead to rearrangements
– That can produce genetic disorders or, if the changes occur in somatic cells, cancer
