Cell Cycle

Front

What are the three main phases of Interphase in the cell cycle?

Back

G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase.

Front

What is the order of the stages in the cell cycle?

Back

G1, S, G2, M.

Front

What occurs during the G1 phase of the cell cycle?

Back

The cell grows and prepares for DNA replication.

Front

What occurs during the S phase of the cell cycle?

Back

DNA replication takes place.

Front

What occurs during the G2 phase of the cell cycle?

Back

The cell prepares for mitosis.

Front

What is M Phase in the cell cycle?

Back

M Phase consists of Mitosis and Cytokinesis.

Front

What is the purpose of the cell cycle?

Back

To ensure proper cell growth, DNA replication, and division.

Front

What is Cytokinesis?

Back

The process where the cytoplasm of a parental cell divides into two daughter cells.

Front

What happens during Prophase?

Back

Chromatin condenses into chromosomes, and the nuclear envelope begins to break down.

Front

What happens during Metaphase?

Back

Chromosomes align at the cell's equatorial plane.
