American Red Cross Text-Book on Home Hygiene and Care of the Sick A series of cells in process of cell division. A Critique of the Theory of Evolution This structure, discovered by Van Beneden, has been regarded as essential to cell division, yet some recent botanical studies seem to show that sometimes it is altogether wanting in a dividing cell. A History of Science, Volume 5(of 5) Aspects Of Recent Science The phenomena of cell division in well-developed cells with nuclei is termed mitosis. The Sexual Question A Scientific, psychological, hygienic and sociological study They must owe their origin to a disturbance in the processes of cell division through which the gametes originate.

Sex Avoided subjects Discussed in Plain English The disproportion is so great between the two cells, that the phenomenon does not at first suggest the idea of cell division, and it is usually described as the extrusion of the first polar body. Text Book of Biology, Part 1: Vertebrata The second form of cell division or internal cell division is shown at C. Here the protoplasm and nucleus repeatedly divide until a number of small cells are formed within the old one. Elements of Structural and Systematic Botany For High Schools and Elementary College Courses Such a phenomenon, however, is rare, the macronucleus usually dividing at a late stage of cell division. Marine Protozoa from Woods Hole Bulletin of the United States Fish Commission 21:415-468, 1901 Considered from the more fundamental molecular point of view we should perhaps look to failure of the power of cell division as the condition of mortality. The Birth-Time of the World and Other Scientific Essays This knowledge appears chiefly under two heads, viz., cell division and the fertilization of the egg. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity It is by a continued process of cell division that the complex structures of the most complex organisms is brought about. Young Folks' Library, Volume XI (of 20) Wonders of Earth, Sea and Sky Internal cell division, as we shall see, is found in most plants, but only at special times. Elements of Structural and Systematic Botany For High Schools and Elementary College Courses The fertilization of the ovum and cell division may be described by use of the blackboard and embryological models of the later stages of development. The Social Emergency Studies in Sex Hygiene and Morals For it is to this phenomenon—that of cell division—that the continued life of the protozoon is to be ascribed, as we have already seen. The Birth-Time of the World and Other Scientific Essays During the last ten years this cell division has been most thoroughly studied, and we have a pretty good knowledge of it so far as its microscopical features are concerned. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity From this double cell produced by conjugation many generations of cells arise by continual cell division in divergent series. Scientific American Supplement, No. 810, July 11, 1891 Owing to the absence of a definite membrane, a distinction between fission and internal cell division can scarcely be made here. Elements of Structural and Systematic Botany For High Schools and Elementary College Courses When a cell division takes place, the nucleus breaks up into a number of thread-like portions which are known as chromosomes. Taboo and Genetics A Study of the Biological, Sociological and Psychological Foundation of the Family It was wrong to have robbed a being of life and any connections the fetus might have had beyond its own cell divisions. Tokyo to Tijuana: Gabriele Departing America The following description will outline the general facts of such cell division, and will apply with considerable accuracy to all cases of cell division, although the details may differ not a little. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity The particular kind of cell division termed "budding" here deserves mention. Scientific American Supplement, No. 531, March 6, 1886 These arise as the result of certain peculiarities in the process of cell division, which are too complicated to be explained here. Elements of Structural and Systematic Botany For High Schools and Elementary College Courses In the lower orders of one-celled algæ, reproduction takes place by simple cell division. Taboo and Genetics A Study of the Biological, Sociological and Psychological Foundation of the Family It is the Malpighian layer of the epidermis that is most active in cell division. Diseases of the Horse's Foot The first indication of the cell division is shown by the chromatin fibres. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity Reproduction: by cell division, by the conversion of the cell contents into zoospores, and by resting spores, formed sometimes after conjugation; in other cases, probably, by fecundation by spermatozoids. Scientific American Supplement, No. 384, May 12, 1883 This is especially the case in studies in cell division in the higher plants, where the changes in the dividing nucleus are very complicated. Elements of Structural and Systematic Botany For High Schools and Elementary College Courses In mitosis or ordinary cell division, these chromosomes split lengthwise, so that the new cells always have the same number as the original one. Taboo and Genetics A Study of the Biological, Sociological and Psychological Foundation of the Family The most significant alteration, however, occurs in the cells which line the glands; these increase in size at first; and then, by a process of cell division, their number multiplies. The Prospective Mother, a Handbook for Women During Pregnancy The next step in the cell division consists in the separation of the two halves of the chromosomes. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity There is also another increase by cell division. Scientific American Supplement, No. 384, May 12, 1883 The essential part of the cells, namely the nuclei, coalesce into one nucleus, and an active process of cell division and multiplication is at once started. Men Women and God The fertilized ovum, the cell with which each animal begins its life, grows and multiplies by cell division, and develops into a hollow globe of cells called the BLASTOSPHERE. The Elements of Geology Now when this fertilized cell divides, each of the rods splits lengthwise, half of each entering each of the two cells arising from the cell division. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity The essential object of this complicated phenomena of karyokinesis is to divide the chromatin into equivalent halves, so that the cells resulting from the cell division shall contain an exactly equivalent chromatin content. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity These two asters and the centrosomes within them have been spoken of as the dynamic centre of the cell since they appear to control the forces which lead to cell division. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity Very early in development, the cells, which at first appear similar, become differentiated into different types, but the whole ordered sequence of the development of an embryo is achieved by this cell division and multiplication. Men Women and God At some period or other in the cell division this splitting of the chromosomes takes place. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity The rest of the cell division now follows rapidly. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity Plainly, we must conclude that the chromatin material is something of extraordinary importance to the cell, and the centrosome is a bit of machinery for controlling its division and thus regulating cell division. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity There now follows a division of the nucleus exactly similar to that which occurs in the normal cell division already described in Figs. 28-34. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity The lining membrane of the uterus grows round and envelops it, and the wonderful process of cell division and multiplication proceeds which results in the growth and development of a child. Men Women and God It appears to be a piece of the machinery for bringing about cell division, but beyond this it is not safe to make any statements. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity The foundation of reproduction is thus in all cases cell division. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity Moreover, the various fibres which surround the centrosomes in cell division and whose contractions and expansions, as we have seen, pull the chromosomes apart in cell division, are parts of the cell substance. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity These structures regulate the cell division, and hence the reproduction of all animals and plants. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity With these various facts of cell division and cell fertilization in mind, we can reach a very simple explanation of fundamental features of heredity. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity In the cell division the chromosomes no longer split into equivalent halves, but some characters are portioned off to some cells and others to other cells. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity We may say that this power of reproduction is dependent upon the power of assimilation and growth, for cell division is a result of cell growth. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity Secondly, it utterly fails to explain the marvels of cell division with resulting hereditary transmission.
