|
The Cell Cycle;
1. Interphase |
- 90% of the cell cycle
- G1 = growth phase - S phase = synthesis of DNA - G2 phase = preparation for cell division |

The Cell Cycle;
2. Mitotic phase |
- mitosis = nuclear division
- cytokinesis = cytoplasm division - - Mitosis - - -prophase -prometaphase -metaphase -anaphase -telophase |
|
|
The Cell Cycle;
3. Prophase |
- Chromosomes visible
- Nucleoli disapears =Nucleoli ~> makes ribosomes - Sister chromatids - Mitotic spindle forms - Centrosomes move |
