Oogenesis
The formation of the ovum (mature female gamete) from undifferentiated germ cells is called oogenesis. This process takes place in the ovaries (female gonads). Oogenesis consists of three stages known as the multiplication phase, growth phase, and maturation phase.
Cell Division
Cell division involves the formation of new daughter cells from the parent cells. It is a part of the cell cycle that takes place in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Cell division is required for three main reasons:
Question
Match the image with each phase of the cell cycle.
Transcribed Image Text:**Cell Cycle Stages and Mitosis Phases**
The image illustrates different stages of the cell cycle, focusing on mitosis. Each stage is represented by a diagram with distinct cellular structures such as the centrosome. The diagrams are labeled numerically from 1 to 5.
**Diagrams:**
1. **Diagram 1:**
- Label: Interphase
- Description: The cell is in a period of growth and DNA replication. Chromosomes are not yet visible, and the centrosome is duplicated.
2. **Diagram 2:**
- Label: Early Prophase
- Description: Chromatin fibers condense into visible chromosomes. The centrosome begins to move toward opposite poles of the cell.
3. **Diagram 3:**
- Label: Late Prophase
- Description: The nuclear envelope breaks down, and spindle fibers form, attaching to chromosomes.
4. **Diagram 4:**
- Label: Metaphase
- Description: Chromosomes align at the cell equator, with spindle fibers attached to their centromeres.
5. **Diagram 5:**
- Label: Anaphase
- Description: Chromatids separate and move toward opposite poles due to the shortening of spindle fibers.
**Table Matching Images to Stages:**
- Image 3 → Interphase
- Image 5 → Early Prophase
- Image 2 → Late Prophase
- Image 1 → Metaphase
- Image 4 → Anaphase
This depiction is used to educate on cellular processes during mitosis, demonstrating the sequential transformations within the cell.
