Study Notes

Cell Cycle in Prokaryotic Cells

  • During the C period, the cytoplasm divides and the cell splits into two daughter cells.
  • The B period is the stage where the cell grows, replicates its DNA, and prepares for cell division.

Cell Cycle in Eukaryotic Cells

  • The two main stages of the cell cycle are Interphase and Mitosis.
  • Interphase is further divided into three stages: Gap 1 (G1), Synthesis (S), and Gap 2 (G2).
  • Mitosis is the stage where the replicated DNA is divided equally between two daughter cells.

Cell Division

  • The process of a cell dividing into two daughter cells is called Binary Fission.

Cell Cycle Regulation

  • The control mechanisms that determine if a cell can progress to the next phase are called Checkpoints.
