How is replication a part of the cell cycle?

It is the main purpose of the cell cycle, to replicate the cell. the DNA is replicated, along with everything else, to form a new identical cell.


The water cycle controls the precipitation and what else?

Temperature.


What is the name of the starting cell that divides into 2 identical cells in mitosis?

The starting cell that divides into two identical cells in mitosis is called a parent cell or a mother cell.


What is viral reproduction?

Since viruses are not actually living things (because they do not grow, do not have homeostasis, and do not metabolize) I don't think they produce like anything else (neither sexually nor asexually). They reproduce by first infecting a living cell. They rely on host cells to reproduce because they lack the enzymes necessary for metabolism and have no structures to make protein. Then, the bacterial virus (bacteriophage) punches a hole in the cell wall and injects its DNA into the cell. Or, a plant virus enters a plant cell through tiny rips in the cell wall at points of injury. Animal viruses enter host cells through endocytosis. Then, viruses either go through the lytic or lysogenic cycle. In the lytic cycle, the virus attaches to a cell and injects it own bacterial DNA. Then the viral genes control the host cell and force it to replicate viral genes and to make viral proteins, such as caspids. The proteins are then combined with new copies of DNA, to make new complete viruses. Then, the host cell breaks open and releases the new viruses. During the lysogenic cycle, the viral DNA is replicated and embedded into the bacterial DNA so it copies, but doesn't destroy the host cell. Symptoms may not appear for a long time. Then, something triggers the virus and it goes through the lytic cycle. Most of this information (some of it word for word) came from my biology textbook, "Biology: Principles and Explorations" by Holt, Rinehart, and Winston. Hope that was clear enough and that it helps!

What has to happen for cytokinesis to take place?

Mitosis or else a cell wont be able to divide or form Building off of this, you must go through the G0 G1 and G2 stages, each having a separate effect on the cell division, where mitosis follows, with P.M.A.T. or Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase happen. Telophase is commonly accepted as similar in function to cytokinesis, as in both the cytoplasm is dividing into the two daughter cells. Dont take my word for it, but this is what i learned!

What does silicon consisits?

Silicon is an element so it is just what it is. It doesnt consist of anything else. If you meant to say what does Sand consist of, then the answer would be SiO2 or silicon di oxide

Can I be tracked by my cell phone number?

The police can can track you if you have a cell phone on you if they have a warrant to do so. If someone else else does it, then it will be illegal.


What happens to organelles with cancer?

Organelles that are in cancerous cells constantly divide without doing anything else. Normally, the cell's DNA would control the organelles into doing various activities, but the disruption of cell cycle causes the DNA to only send messages that tells the organelles to divide.


What part of the cell seprates from everything else?
