Document Summary

Cells in our body need to divide: Mitosis or meiosis: stages where the cell divides. Cells that make up the body but aren"t involved in sexual reproduction undergo mitosis. Meiosis occurs exclusively in cells that produce sperm and eggs. Skin turnover is an example of mitosis cell division. A single cell (parent cell) divides into 2 identical daughter cells. Each daughter cell must have a full complement of dna (chromosomes) from the parent cell. Must also have all the organelles of the parent cell. Dna and organelles must be replicated before division. 2 stages of the cell cycle are interphase and mitosis (division) Interphase consists of 3 major stages : g1, s and g2. S (synthesis) phase is when dna is replicated. G1 and g2 phases are times when the cell grows and prepares for mitosis. During g1 phase, particular proteins must be made and activated for s phase. G2 makes proteins to prepare the cell for mitosis.
