Study Notes
Cell Reproduction
- Cell cycle stages: Interphase (G1, S, G2) are growth stages.
- G1: cell growth
- S: DNA synthesis (DNA is replicated)
- G2: more growth, organelles duplicated
- Mitosis: cell division.
- Prophase: chromosomes condense, nuclear membrane dissolves.
- Metaphase: chromosomes line up in the middle.
- Anaphase: sister chromatids separate.
- Telophase: chromosomes reach opposite poles and nuclear envelopes form.
- Cytokinesis: cytoplasm divides.
Mitosis Diagrams
- Diagrams show the stages of mitosis with labeled examples.
