|
The cell cycle |
The cell grows, replicates its DNA, and divides into two daughter cells in the cell cycle. (G1, S, G2, M) |
|
|
Interphase |
Cell is doing its job, growing and preparing for cell division. 94 % of cell life |
|
|
G1 phase |
The cell is growing |
|
|
S phase |
DNA replication |
|
|
G2 phase |
The cell is preparing for mitosis and continues to grow. |
|
|
Cell division (M phase) |
Process of one cell forming two daughter cells. |
|
|
Mitosis |
Nuclear division and cytokinesis in eukaryotic cells, producing 2 daughter cells with the same diploid (2n) number of chromosomes (somatic cells) |
|
|
Cytokinesis |
Cytoplasm division |
|
|
G1 phase in detail |
-Cell increases in size -Synthesize new proteins and organelles -Cell does its job |
|
|
S phase in detail |
-Chromosomes are replaced here (DNA/protein complex) |
|
|
G2 phase in detail |
-Many organelles and molecules required for cell division are produced. |
|
|
Somatic cells |
-Regular body cells (skin, muscle, ect.) -Undergo mitosis |
