In gap 1, what gets duplicated?
Organelles
What mainly happens in the S phase
It copies DNA
Growth, repair and replacing old cells.
Cytokinesis is the final split of this jelly-like fluid that fills the cell
Cytoplasm
How long does the whole cycle take
24 hours
If in G1, not divide signal is sent it enters this non-dividing "resting" state
G0 (Gap 0)
When does this phase happen?
During interphase, right before cell devision.
In this phase, chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
Metaphase
The goal of Cytokinesis is to create two identical cells, called by this family name
Daughter cell
There are _ main phases
4
What is being chemically made by synthesizing?
Proteins
In the cycle, the S phase is important because?
Cells would lose DNA without it
In this phase, the sister chromatids are pulled apart or away from each other
Anaohase
Cytokinesis doesn't wait until Mitosis is 100% done. It usually begins at the same time as this final phase
Telophase
Handy acronym to remember in order of the four stages of mitosis
PMAT
The cell continues to grow and gets ready for what?
Mitosis
Before the S Phase, a chromosome looks like a stick. After S phase, it looks like this letter of the alphabet
X
In the first phase, the nuclear membrane disappears, and the messy DNA coils up into visible chromosomes.
prophase
Plat cells annot pinch in half like animal cells do because they are surrounded by this rigid outer layer
Cell wall
During this phase, chromosomes line up up across the "equator" or center of the cell
Prophase
What happens in Group 1 if the cell isn't at the "checkpoint"
It enters the group 0 phase
By the end of S Phase, a chromosome is made of two identical halves called these
Sister chromatids
These rope-like structures attach to the chromosomes to pull them apart
Spindle fibers
While Mitosis divided the nucleus, Cytokinesis divides the rest of the ____
Cell
Primary job of the G2 checkpoint is to verify that this has been completely duplicated and is undamaged
DNA
