What are the stages of Interphase?
Interphase consists of three stages: G1 (Gap 1) phase, S (Synthesis) phase, and G2 (Gap 2) phase. In G1 phase, cells grow and carry out their normal functions. During S phase, DNA replication occurs to create identical copies of the cell's genetic material. G2 phase involves preparation for cell division, such as synthesis of proteins needed for mitosis.
DNA condenses into chromosomes in what phase of mitosis?
Gap 2
What is the Cell cycle Gap O phase?
The Gap 0 phase (G0) is a resting phase in the cell cycle where cells are not actively dividing. Cells in G0 are in a quiescent state and can re-enter the cell cycle when stimulated. This phase is important for maintaining cellular homeostasis and responding to external signals.
Phase which the cell carries out functions?
The phase in which a cell carries out its functions is called the interphase. This phase includes three stages: G1 (gap 1), S (synthesis), and G2 (gap 2), during which the cell grows, replicates DNA, and prepares for cell division.
What stage occurs after cytokinesis?
The next stage after cytokinesis is G1 phase, the first gap phase of interphase. This stage is characterized by cell growth and preparation for DNA replication in the S phase.
When is the cell's DNA copied in the cell cycle?
DNA replication occurs during the S phase of the cell cycle. This phase is sandwiched between the G1 phase (gap 1) and the G2 phase (gap 2). The S phase is when the cell's DNA is replicated before cell division occurs.
How did the G1 and G2 stages get their names?
The designation G-phase comes simply from Gap Phase, indicating the gaps present between synthesis and mitosis. These are the stages of interphase in which the cell grows to prepare for division.
Which phase of the cell cycle follows mitosis?
The phase of the cell cycle that follows mitosis is called interphase. This phase consists of three stages: G1 (gap 1), S (synthesis), and G2 (gap 2), during which the cell grows, duplicates its DNA, and prepares for the next round of cell division.
What does G2 refer to?
G2 refers to the second gap phase in a cells life-cycle, it occurs just after the s phase but before the cell begins to divide.
What is the cells longest phase?
The longest phase in the cell cycle is typically the G1 (Gap 1) phase, where the cell grows and carries out its normal functions before proceeding to DNA replication in the S phase.
What are the key differences between the G1 and G2 phases of the cell cycle?
The key differences between the G1 and G2 phases of the cell cycle are that G1 is the first gap phase where the cell grows and prepares for DNA replication, while G2 is the second gap phase where the cell continues to grow and prepares for cell division. G1 phase is followed by the S phase where DNA replication occurs, while G2 phase is followed by the M phase where cell division takes place.
