Shortly after childbirth, nerve cells (neurons) stop reproducing. Therefore, nerve cells are not undergoing mitosis at all; rather, they are in the G0 phase. During the G0 phase, no preparations are made for cell division: the cell simply lives. While nerve cells do not reproduce, they do form connections between each other, establishing a more complex network as time passes.

When nerve cells in the nervous system cease to divide they are in what stage?

When nerve cells in the nervous system cease to divide, they are in the G0 stage of the cell cycle. This is a quiescent phase where the cells are not actively dividing but are still functioning.


What is the G0 phase and what type of human cells are in this phase?

The cells in G0 phase do not go through mitosis whatsoever. These cells only do what they are initially suppose to do, and do not prepare for a division. Many cells in your body are like this. Brain cells are in G0 phase and do not EVER replace itself. However, many cells may also trigger its phase from G0 phase to G1 phase when more cells are needed. When a liver is critically damaged, the liver cells are triggered back to G1 phase to replenish its lost cells. When this is complete, it goes back to being in G0 phase.

Which cells in the body are thought to remain in the G0 phase during the cells' life cycle?

Cardiac muscle cells and neurons are believed to remain in the G0 phase long-term. These cells have limited capacity for cell division and usually remain in a differentiated state, performing their specialized functions without actively dividing.


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.
