Interphase

The period between cell divisions, where the cell grows and prepares for division.

G₁ phase

The first phase of Interphase, where the cell grows and prepares for DNA duplication.

S phase

The phase of Interphase where the cell's DNA is replicated.

G₂ phase

The second phase of Interphase, where the cell continues to grow and prepares for Mitosis.

Study Notes

Cell Cycle

  • Interphase is the time between cell divisions
  • It is the longest phase
  • It is divided into 3 phases
  • G₁ phase: growth phase
  • S phase: cell's DNA is copied
  • G₂ phase: time gap

Mitosis

  • Mitosis is the (M phase)
  • It is the phase where the nucleus divides
  • It has 4 phases
