Study Notes

Cell Cycle and Division

DNA replication takes place during the S phase of the cell cycle.
The phase where actual cell division occurs is called M phase (mitosis).
Mitosis is also known as equational division.
The time lapse between two successive M phases of cell division is known as the interphase.
DNA replication is essential for growth, repair, and reproduction in cells.

Meiosis

During metaphase I of meiosis, homologous chromosomes get attached to the spindles from opposite poles.
The result of cytokinesis in meiosis I is two daughter cells, each with the diploid number of chromosomes.
In some organisms, such as certain fungi and slime molds, cytokinesis does not immediately follow karyokinesis, leading to the formation of a multinucleate stage.
During telophase II of meiosis, nuclear envelopes reform, and chromosomes uncoil to form chromatin.
The outcome of meiosis II is four haploid daughter cells, each with unique combinations of alleles.
