Biology: Producing New Cells
- Cell Division
- 1. The cell grows to full size
- 2. The cell's nucleus splits into two
- 3. The cell's cytoplasm splits into two
- 4. Two daughter cells are produced
- Nucleus
- This is the control centre of the cell
- This is where the information is stored
- The nucleus is often refered to as the brain of the cell
- The nucleus has chromosones
- This holds the information of the cell
- This is passed onto the daughter cells
- Mitosis
- 1. As nucleur membrane disappears, chromosones appear
- 2. Chromosones are in the cytoplasm
- 3. Centrioles produce spindel fibres
and equally line across the cell
- 4. Spindle fibres pull the chromosones apart
- 5. The centromeres split and so does the cytoplasm
- 6. Two daughter cells (containing the same amount of chromosones) are made
- Chromosones
- All human cells have 46 chromosones...
- ...except sex cells.
- A sperm and an egg each have 23 chromosones
- Not all animals have the same amount of cells
- And all animal sex cells have
half the amount of
chromosones than any other
cell in their body
- Antibiotics
- Antibiotics are antibacterial chemicals
- Antibiotics were discovered by Alexnder Fleming
- Antibiotics use mould to prevent the growth of bacteria
- The first antibiotic was Penicillin made from a fungus called penicillium
