New cards

list the phases of cell cycle

Interphase (G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase ) and Mitosis (Prophase, Metaphase, anaphase and telophase + cytokinesis)

2
New cards

What do all somatic cells have in common?

they are genetically identical

3
New cards

What happens in the cell during interphase?

G1 phase: cells increase in size and volume

S phase: cell replicates entire genome

G2 phase: cell undergoes final growth and checks replicated DNA for errors

New cards

What happens in the cell during mitosis?

P: DNA coils, centrioles move to opposite poles and nuclear envelope breaks down.

M: chromosomes align along middle of cell

A: sister chromatids separate, spindle fibres drag chromosomes towards opposite ends of cells

T: Nuclear membrane form around separated chromosomes

C: cell membrane pinches inward and two genetically identical daughter cells are created
