Key Concepts

Mitosis

Mitosis is the division phase of the cell cycle where the replicated chromosomes are separated into two new nuclei, eventually leading to the formation of two identical daughter cells. It ensures accurate distribution of genetic material.

S Phase

The S phase is the period in the cell cycle dedicated to DNA replication. During this phase, the entire genome is duplicated in preparation for cell division.

Cell Cycle

The cell cycle is a series of events that cells go through as they grow and divide. It includes phases for cellular growth, DNA replication, and division, ensuring that genetic material is accurately passed on to daughter cells.

Interphase

Interphase is the longest phase of the cell cycle, during which the cell prepares for division by growing, synthesizing proteins, and replicating DNA (specifically in the S phase). It consists of subphases including G1, S, and G2.

G1 Phase

The G1 phase is the first part of interphase where the cell grows and carries out its normal metabolic functions. It is a period of intense biosynthesis, but it is not the phase during which DNA replication occurs.
