Cell Cycle Flashcards
It takes how many hours to complete a cell cycle
18-24 hours
Cell cycle hours breakdown
Interphase:
■ G1 - 5 to 6 hours.
■ S - 10 to 12 hours.
■ G2 - 4 to 6 hours.
○Mitotic Phase - 30 to 45 minutes.
Where cell grows and the dna is duplicated to prepare the cell for division
Interphase
Primary growth phase
First Gap
Smallest period of the cell
First Gap
In g1 phase, the cell is very active as it grows and develops
Organlles
What undergoes in first gap
- transcription
- translation
- protein synthesis
- increasing size of cytoplasm
The DNA Synthesis phase
S phase
This is where cells DNA undergoes replication
S phase
Secondary growth phase
Second gap
Where the cell does not grow or divide
Happens after interphase
Mitotic ohase
Equational division
Mitosis
Result of mitosis
2 genetically indetical daughter cells
In mitosis, each daughter cell has _ chromosomes
46
Prophase
- chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes
- mitotic spindle appears
- nucelus disappears
- nuclear envelope disappears
Helds sister chromatids togethere
Centromere
Prometaphase
- more condensed chromosomes
- each chromatid has now kinetochore
- nuclear envelope fragments
Metaphase
-Chromosomes align at center
- no seperation
- M checkpoint!
Alignment of chromosomes in the middle
Metaphase plate
Anaphase
- sis chromatidsnow seperate
- cell elongates
Shortest stage
Anaphase
Telophase
- nuclear membrane appears
- nucleolus appears
- mitotic spindle disappears
- chromosome revert to chromatin
Reductional division
Meiosis
