Interphase
longest part of cell cycle. Divided into 3 main parts, G1 Stage, S Stage, G2 Stage
G1 Stage of Interphase
when cell grows and develops and new proteins are made
S Stage of Interphase
Chromosomes replicate in the nucleus to form a new set of identical chromosomes so that when the cell divides each new cell will hace the correct number of chromosomes.
G2 Stage
the cell is getting ready for mitosis and is making RNA and proteins that will be needed when the cell divides.
Mitosis
the division of the nucleus, “One diploid cell divides to form two identical diploid cells”
Prophase
chromatin coils up, shortens, and thickens. Nuclear envelope begins to disappear and the chromosomes are visible.
Metaphase
the chromosomes line up at the middle of the nucleus
Anaphase
chromosomes are in pairs called chromatids, and they pull apart to opposite sides of the cells
Telophase
new nuclear envelope forms around each set of chromosomes
Cytokineses
“CYTOPLASMIC DIVISION” - when the entire cell divides
Cell Differentation
cell grows and develops unique structures to perform its specific functions
