How do checkpoints on the cell cycle occur in cells? Checkpoints only occur in cells after they become cancerous The only checkpoints occur in S phase Concentrations of molecules in the cytoplasm create checkpoints in multiple parts of the cell cycle A person's brain controls the checkpoints in every one of their cells The only checkpoints occur in G1 phase
