Document Summary
The principle of structure and function: cellular function is related to the particular organelles that are present within that cell. Interphase: growth for individual cell and prep for nuclear division. G1: growth and metabolic roles most metabolic activity. G2: more brief getting ready for mitosis: m phase: process of dividing cells 2 phases. Mitosis: the division of the nucleus in order to provide both new daughter cells with complete genomes. Prophase: chromosomes condense and nuclear envelope breaks down. Centrioles migrate to opposite poles of the cell. Metaphase: chromosomes lie along midline of cell. Spindle fibers pull sister chromatids to opposite poles of the cell. Each pole (future daughter cell) now has an identical set of genes. Telophase: chromosomes gather at each pole of cell. Cytokinesis: division of the cytoplasm (which also results in the partitioning of the cytoplasmic organelles into the two daughter cells) and occurs concurrently with telophase.
