Study Notes
Cell Cycle Stages
- Cell cycle consists of Mitotic (M) phase and Interphase
- Mitotic phase includes mitosis and cytokinesis
- Interphase is about 90% of the cell cycle
- Interphase has three phases: G1, S, and G2
- Cell growth happens in all three phases of interphase
- Chromosomes are duplicated only during the S phase.
