What are interphase chromosome called?
During interphase chromosomes take the form of chromatin, an unravelled mess of DNA
When does DNA replication take place?
DNA replication occurs during the synthesis phase of interphase of the cell cycle.
What stage does a Cell spend most of its time?
G1 is typically the longest phase of the cell cycle. This can be explained by the fact that G1 follows cell division in mitosis; G1 represents the first chance for new cells have to grow. Cells usually remain in G1 for about 10 hours of the 24 total hours of the cell cycle. The length of S phase varies according to the total DNA that the particular cell contains; the rate of synthesis of DNA is fairly constant between cells and species. Usually, cells will take between 5 and 6 hours to complete S phase. G2 is shorter, lasting only 3 to 4 hours in most cells. In sum, then, interphase generally takes between 18 and 20 hours. Mitosis, during which the cell makes preparations for and completes cell division only takes about 2 hours. (G0), G1, S and G2 are interphase.
Do mitosis and meiosis take place in all kind of living things?
You do need mitosis to live. If we didn't have mitosis we all would of died by now. Mitosis is the process of cell multiplication (and all the cells are identical), if we lose that ability we wouldn't be able heal cuts, for example, we would all bleed to death. Also, if our cells stopped reproducing, our internal organs would deteriorate in minutes because there is nothing to provide them with the nutrients they need to function.
What stage of mitosis does replication happen in?
Replication does not take place during mitosis. It takes place before meiosis begins.
Why is interphase necessary before mitosis can successfully take place?
During interphase, the DNA is replicated, which ensures that there will be one copy in each daughter cell after the cell division.
Do cyclins bind with cyclin-dependent kinases to initiate different stages in mitosis?
Proteins called cyclins bind to enzymes called cyclin-dependent kinases(CDKs) in the stages of interphase and mitosis to start the various activities that take place in the cell cycle.
What are interphase chromosome called?
During interphase chromosomes take the form of chromatin, an unravelled mess of DNA
How many hours does mitosis need to take place?
12 hours
What lasts longer the mitotic phase or interphase?
interphase...tz take around 16.to 18 hours..mitotic phase take around 2 hours...
What happens before mitosis begins?
the stage before mitosis is called interphase and majority of the time the cell has is spent in interphase. during interphase the cell acquires nutrients and the DNA replicates.
When does DNA replication take place?
DNA replication occurs during the synthesis phase of interphase of the cell cycle.
Mutations in DNA often occur during replication. During which phase of the cell cycle do such mutations occur?
Genetic mutations occur during the S phase of the cell cycle (during interphase before mitosis or meiosis begins). This is when DNA is replicated, so any error would cause a mutation in the genetic code. Chromosomal nondisjunction is the failure of replicated chromosomes to separate, which causes extra or missing chromosomes in the daughter cells. This mutation can occur during meiosis I or II and during mitosis.
What phase does DNA replication take place?
i think interphase
What phase of the cells cycle is typically the longest phase?
Interphase is the longest phase of the cell cycle because it's the phase between divisions. It involves G1, S, G2, and G0 phase where the cell goes through growth after its division and then preperation to go through mitosis again.
How many minutes does it take 1 mile?
30 minutes
How many minutes does the US take up?
Well actually the US doesn't take up minutes but there are 1440 minutes in a day.
