Cell_Cycle

Cell Cycle A person gets all forty-six of their chromosomes from ones parents in a process called cell division. One very important event related to subsequent cell division does occur during interphase (period between the end of one division and the appearance of the next structural changes that indicate the beginning of the next division), namely, the replication of DNA, which begins about ten h before the first visible signs of division and last about seven h. This period is called the S phase of the cell cycle. Following the end of DNA synthesis, there is a brief interval, G2 phase. The period from the end of the cell division to the beginning of the S phase is the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Cells that leave the cell cycle enter a phase known as the G0 phase in which the process that initiates DNA replication is blocked. A cell in G0 phase, upon receiving an appropriate signal, can reenter the cell cycle, being replicating DN, and proceed to divide. Cell division involves two process: nuclear division, or mitosis, and cytoplasmic division, or cytokinesis.
