Guys, I want everyone's attention.
We're gonna go over what we did yesterday.
We're gonna go over the stages of mitosis.
Alright, everybody ready?
Alright, let's go.
Interphase of cell division's longest part.
Nucleus membrane's intact as it starts.
The cell's growing.
Cytoplasm flowing.
Chromosomes get duplicated.
DNA gets replicated.
Chromosomes are spread out so they can't be seen distinctly.
But note the nucleolus.
The ribosome factory outside the nucleus.
The two centrosomes.
They later make a spindle which will pull apart the chromosomes.
Prophase follows.
The chromosomes condense.
Each is made of two sister chromatids like an X.
Each sister is a clone.
The closest of kin.
And a centromere connects them like Siamese twins.
The nucleolus disappears or melts away.
As the cell takes a ribosome production holiday.
The centrosomes separate start spindle formation.
The separating chromatids and cell [Ab] elongation.
Mitosis.
Chromosome on ride.
Interprometa anaphylophase divides.
Eukaryotes bone from one cell to two.
Mitosis.
How cells [Eb] renew.
In late prophase, prometaphase.
The nuclear membrane [Ab] disintegrates.
The centrosomes migrate to the cell's opposing sides.
In between are the fibers of the spindle when they wind.
The spindle is made of microtubule fibers which attach to chromosomes.
A kinetochore is a protein path that serves like a handle that the fibers can grab.
When they pull apart the chromosomes splitting them in half.
The [N] spindle moves the chromosomes with nudges so fine into linear formation on the 50 yard line.
A location equatorial defining metaphase where the chromosomes are lined up on that middle place.
[Eb] Mitosis.
Chromosome on [Ab] ride.
Interprometa anaphylophase divides.
[Ebm] Eukaryotes [G] bone from one [Ab] cell to two.
Mitosis.
How cells renew.
[Ebm] The spindle fibers pull on the kinetochores.
A cellular molecular mitotic tug of war.
The centromere snaps.
Sisters get separated.
Now these chromatids are chromosomes.
They've been upgraded.
The snapping [Ab] separation defunds anaphase.
The A for apartness.
For moving different ways.
Kinetochore spindle fibers separate.
The sisters see him waving goodbye.
Calling out I'm gonna miss ya.
And the other spindle fibers pushing gravel like felons.
Makes the cell elliptical like a watermelon.
Anaphylophase membranes form around the chromosomes.
That spread out as a nucleoli come on home.
Mitosis.
Chromosome on ride.
Interprometa anaphylophase divides.
[G] Eukaryotes bone [Gb] from one [Ab] cell to two.
Mitosis.
How cells renew.
[Ebm] In animal cells there's a ring of [N] microfilaments that form at the equator.
And they cinch themselves in.
Tida tida tida tida.
Till the cell is in two pieces.
Yeah in animals.
That's cytokinesis.
But it's different in plants.
And then the cell divides.
By building a new cell wall from the inside as the gold descends.
The vesicles would cellularly secude.
Which makes a plate.
Then a wall divides the cell in two.
And instead of one mother cell we now have daughters too.
Identical twins.
Kinda old but kinda new.
From your single cell beginning this is how you grew.
And for single cell eukaryotes it's reproductive too.
[Ab] Mitosis.
Chromosome on ride.
Interprometa anaphylophase divides.
[Gbm] [G] Eukaryotes bone from one cell [Ab] to two.
Mitosis.
How cells renew.
[Ebm] Mitosis.
Chromosome [Ab] on ride.
Interprometa anaphylophase divides.
[Eb] Eukaryotes bone from one cell [Ab] to two.
Mitosis.
How cells [Bb] renew.
