Document Summary

Function of the cell cycle: the cell cycle is an essential mechanism by which all living things reproduce and pass on genetic information to the next generation of cells. It ensures that dna in each chromosome is replicated to produce two copies: replicated chromosomes must be accurately distributed (segregated) to two genetically identical daughter cells, coordination of growth (increase in cell mass) with division. The cell cycle and its phases: the cell cycle is the ordered sequence of events in which a cell duplicates its chromosomes and divides into two genetically identical cells. It consists of four phases (g1, s, g2 and m: g1-s-g2 is called interphase, the longest phase that increases cell size, the most dramatic events observed microscopically occur during m. Cytological features of cycling cultured human hela cells: cells become a little larger and rounder, process took about three hours.
