Mitosis and Meiosis

What are the main events of the cell cycle?

• Interphase, Mitosis, Cytokinesis

• Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase

• G1, S, G2, M phase

• DNA replication, Cell growth, Cell division

During the M Phase, what occurs?

• Cell growth

• DNA replication

• Cell division

• Protein synthesis

The two main stages of cell division in eukaryotes are:

• Mitosis and Cytokinesis

• Prophase and Metaphase

• Anaphase and Telophase

• Interphase and Mitosis

Cytokinesis in an animal cell involves the formation of a (a)   , while in a plant cell, it involves the formation of a ​ (b)   .
