Study Notes

Cell Cycle in Eukaryotic Cells

  • DNA replication occurs in the S (Synthesis) phase of the cell cycle in eukaryotic cells.

Stages of the Cell Cycle

  • The main stages of the cell cycle in eukaryotic cells are: G1 (Gap 1), S (Synthesis), G2 (Gap 2), and M (Mitosis).

Cell Cycle Control Mechanisms

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

Cytokinesis in Eukaryotic Cells

  • In eukaryotic cells, the replicated chromosomes, organelles, and cytoplasm separate into two new daughter cells during the M (Mitosis) stage of the cell cycle.

Cell Cycle in Prokaryotes

  • In cells without nuclei (prokaryotes), the C period of the cell cycle refers to the stage of cellular replication where the cell divides into two daughter cells.
