A cell spends approximately how much of its cycle in the M phase?
A cell spends about 10-20% of its cycle in the M phase, which includes mitosis (cell division) and cytokinesis (cytoplasm division). The majority of the cell cycle is spent in interphase, where cells grow, replicate DNA, and prepare for division.
How would you determine how much time the cells spend in each cycle?
To determine how much time cells spend in each cycle, you can use techniques like flow cytometry to measure the DNA content of the cells, which changes as they progress through the cell cycle. By analyzing the distribution of cells with different DNA content, you can estimate the percentage of cells in each phase of the cell cycle (G1, S, G2, and M) and calculate the duration of each phase based on the progression of cells through the cycle.
How does the cell cycle change in a cancer cell?
Cancer cells often exhibit uncontrolled cell division due to mutations in genes that regulate the cell cycle. This results in faster proliferation and reduced apoptosis. Additionally, cancer cells can bypass cell cycle checkpoints, leading to genomic instability and unchecked growth.
Do all cells have a cell cycle that is equal in duration?
The syntthesis (s) stage.
Do Interphase last longer than other phases of a cell's cycle?
Yes, interphase typically lasts longer than the other phases of the cell cycle. It comprises the G1, S, and G2 phases, during which the cell grows, replicates its DNA, and prepares for mitosis. In contrast, the actual mitotic phase (M phase), which includes mitosis and cytokinesis, is much shorter. Overall, interphase can take up the majority of the cell cycle duration.

What do the two daughter cells look like compared to the original cell after cell division?
When the mitotic cycle is completed, they look pretty much identical.

Why is cell division important function in a plant or an animals?
If not for cell division, we would all have to be unicellular organisms. There would be no multicellularity, and that wouldn't get much done now would it?
What phase of mitosis are mitochondria made?
It all depends on which organism you are talking about and there is no set phase.In many single-celled eukaryotes, their growth and division is linked to the cell cycle.In single cell algae. the only chloroplast and then the only mitochondrion divide before the nucleus undergoes mitosis and before cytokinesis.In other eukaryotes (in mammals for example), mitochondria may replicate their DNA and divide mainly in response to the energy needs of the cell, rather than in phase with the cell cycle. If it does replicate with the cell cycle, it can occur during the S phase of the mitotic cycle and even through out the mitotic cycle.It all depends on which organism you are talking about and there is no set phase.In many single-celled eukaryotes, their growth and division is linked to the cell cycle.In single cell algae. the only chloroplast and then the only mitochondrion divide before the nucleus undergoes mitosis and before cytokinesis.In other eukaryotes (in mammals for example), mitochondria may replicate their DNA and divide mainly in response to the energy needs of the cell, rather than in phase with the cell cycle.

Which of the following is the best predictor of how much damage a virus causes?
Ability of the infected cell to undergo normal cell division.
What does copying chromosomes prior to cell division ensure?

What is the name for the resting period between cell division?
Interphase is a period of a cell's life. It used to be called the resting period, but that name was discarded when scientists realized how much activity takes place during its time.~Alice
How do the stages in the cell cycle work?
The first step in interphase. It is when the cell grows to it mature size.The cell make enough oragelles for the daugter cell.Then mitosis occures in the nulceas metephase it when chorasome form an x shape then form a line next anaphase and when is when the chorosomes pull away so the next is telophase is when two nuclei. The final step of cell cycle is cytokenis is when two new daugter cell are form
Where does mitosis take place in the human cell?
Most of the activity occurs in the middle of the cell itself.
How much DNA does each daughter cell contain when it is compared to the parent cell's DNA?
Daughter cells resulting from mitotic division have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
