32 views3 pages

Document Summary

Repair- if you get a cute, cells have to divide so that you regenerate tissue and maintain function. Differentiation- multiple cells mean that we have the potential for difference. Genetic continuity- cell division is a method of reproduction. Dna replication- each have identical genetic information (need a copy of that gene) Cell has grown enough before it splits. G1 phase: -dna transcription happens here (use of dna to make proteins) No dna replication, cell is carrying out its regular life. S phase: -dna replication, still protein synthesis is occurring. Cell is still growing and carrying out its regular life. G0 phase: -resting phase, considered a part of g1 where cell isn"t dividing. Cytokinesis: when the cell actually divides (not just the nucleus) Mitosis is just a small fraction of the overall cell cycle- cells spend most of their time in interphase. Cells aren"t always dividing- some cells never divide , they just grow and eventually die(e. g. nerve cell, rbc)
