Study Notes
Cell Cycle Phases
- The two main stages of the cell cycle in eukaryotic cells are Interphase and Cell Division (Mitosis and Cytokinesis)
Cell Division
- The process of cell division into two daughter cells is called Cytokinesis
Cell Cycle Control Mechanisms
- Checkpoints (control mechanisms) are in place after each key step of the cell cycle to ensure normal progression
Interphase
- During Interphase, the cell grows, replicates its DNA, and prepares for cell division by synthesizing organelles and proteins
Cell Division Phases
- In the Mitosis phase, replicated chromosomes separate, and in the Cytokinesis phase, the cytoplasm divides, resulting in two new daughter cells
