Cell Cycle

Front

What is the longest part of the Cell Cycle?

Back

Interphase

Front

When is apoptosis initiated?

Back

When DNA damage cannot be repaired.

Front

In which phase of the cell cycle is DNA replicated?

Back

S phase

Front

What is the purpose of the G2 Checkpoint?

Back

To ensure DNA has been replicated correctly during S phase.

Front

What is the result of the cell cycle?

Back

2 identical daughter cells.

Front

What are the main phases of the Cell Cycle?

Back

Interphase (G1, S, G2) and Mitosis (Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Cytokinesis).

Front

What occurs during the G1 phase of the Cell Cycle?

Back

Cell growth and preparation for DNA replication.

Front

What is the role of mitosis in the Cell Cycle?

Back

To divide the replicated DNA into two daughter cells.

Front

What happens during the S phase of the Cell Cycle?

Back

DNA replication occurs.

Front

What is cytokinesis?

Back

The process that divides the cytoplasm of a parental cell into two daughter cells.
