Cell Cycle

  • G1 Phase

    G1 Phase
    Cell enters into the G1 phase. Let the cycle begin! Fun facts:
    1) Typically longest part of cell cycle
    2) Follows mitotic division so...
    3) GROWTH stage
  • Period: to

    Cell Cycle

    If the cell cycle took a month to complete...
  • Period: to

    Interphase

    G1, S, and G2 phases (18-20 hours total)
  • S Phase

    S Phase
    Stage 2 of the Cell Cycle Fun facts:
    1) Length depends on total DNA cell contains
    2) Yet rate is fairly consistent between cell type and species.
  • G2 Phase

    G2 Phase
    3rd Stage of the Cell Cycle Fun facts:
    1) DNA check for wrong replication steps during S stage
    2) Protein check to make sure all amino acids that are needed are present
    3) Usually shortest part of Interphase
  • Prophase

    Prophase
    First stage of Mitosis Fun facts:
    1) Longest stage of mitosis
  • Period: to

    Mitosis

    Final stage of Cell Cycle 4 stages: Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
    Fun facts:
    1) Shortest phase in Cell Cycle
    2) Most activity
    3) Produces new cell
  • Metaphase

    Metaphase
    Second stage of Mitosis
  • Anaphase

    Anaphase
    Third phase of Mitosis
  • Telophase

    Telophase
    Fourth phase of Mitosis
  • Cytokinesis

    Cytokinesis
    Cell is split.
  • G1 Starts Again

    G1 Starts Again
