Study Notes
Main Stages of the Eukaryotic Cell Cycle
- The eukaryotic cell cycle consists of interphase and the mitotic (M) phase.
- Interphase is subdivided into three phases: G1 (Gap 1), S (Synthesis), and G2 (Gap 2).
DNA Replication
- DNA replication occurs during the S phase of interphase.
Cell Cycle Stages in Specific Cell Types
- In certain cells, such as those in plants and some fungi, the cell cycle includes B, C, and D periods in addition to the main stages.
Control Mechanisms of the Cell Cycle
- Checkpoints are the control mechanisms that determine if a cell can progress to the next phase of the cell cycle. These checkpoints monitor cellular conditions and DNA integrity.
Prokaryotic Cell Cycle B Period
- In prokaryotic cells, the B period occurs after cell growth and before DNA replication begins.
M Phase Events
- The M phase of the eukaryotic cell cycle involves mitosis and cytokinesis, leading to the division of the cell into two daughter cells.
