Every cell division has two phases : karyokinesis or division of nucleus and eytokinesis or division of cytoplasm. Mitosis and meiosis have varied features. ‘© The four stages of each cell division are (1) prophase, (ii) metaphase, (ii) anaphase and (iv) telophase, ‘@ Mitosis is also known as equational division since the number of chromosomes and DNA in daughter cells are equal to parent cell. ‘© Meiosis is elso known as reduction division since the four daughter cells bear half the number of chromosomes that of the mother cell ‘© The two divisions of meiosis may be summed up as (a) Meiosis 1: reductional division or heterotypic division. (6) Melosis II: equational division or homotypic division Growth is an increase in size or mass of a developing or living system. ‘Aster is « bundle of microtubule fibres radiating out from each pole of a cell during cell division. Bivalent refers to a pair of homologous chromosomes when they pair up during meiosis Tetrad is the uroup of four sister chromatids inside the homologous chromesomie pair: Centrioles are two selfreplicating, cylindrical collection of microtubules in the cytoplasm near the nucleus of animal cells which orgenise spindle fibres for cell division. Chiasina refers to that area where crossing over has taken place during prophase of meiosis | ‘© During the S-phase or synthetic phase of imerphase, replication of DNA and synthesis of histone proteins occurs. ‘e During prophase, the formation of the spindle or mitotic apparatus occurs which is the most conspicuous change in the cytoplasm, fe The first sign of cleavage in animal cells is puckering and furrowing of the plasma membrane. Crossing over is the mechanism of recombination of the genes due to interchange of chromosomal segments at the time of pairing, thromosomes are small, thick, rod-like structures found in the nucleus of each cell. ‘The long, thin, dark stained Bbres inside the nucleus are called chromatin fibres. . . ‘© Chromosomes are made up of DNA and histones. ‘© One nucleosome consists of eight histone proteins with DNA strand. In diploid cells, there are two kinds of chromosomes - Autosomes and Sex-chromosomes, ‘© In buman beings each cell contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, ‘¢ 231d pair of chromosomes in human is called sex-chromosomes. Gopals ICSE Biolog 10 Question Bank with MIP for Firsi Semester Examination i@ Chromosomes determine the sex and control the cell metabolism. The DNA strand is made up of nucleotides. Each nucleotide is composed of pentose sugar, phosphate and nitrogenous base ‘There are four nitrogenous bases ~ Adenine, guanine, thymine and cytosine. ‘# New DNA strands are formed by the replication of old DNA strand.

Continuity of tife depends on cell division. A sequence of events occur in a cell as it grows and divides is called cell cycle. The cell cycle is divided into four stages,G,, S, G, and M. There are ‘two major types of cell division, mitosis and meiosis. During cell division different stages ane distinguished on the basis of location and shape of chromosomes.
