Document Summary

What did the cell cycle ever do for you: replication, division and differentiation of your cells, you began life as a fertilized egg. It took many rounds of replication and division to build your approx. In addition to replication/division making more cells, cells differentiate as they replicate: you have several hundred different types of tissues in your body. Your cells become more specialized with every cell division. The cell cycle: g1: stockpile nucleotides, atp, enzymes to replicate dna, g2: synthesize microtubules and other proteins needed for cell division, stockpile atp and. S: replicate dna enzymes for mitosis/meiosis: m: mitosis or meiosis. The cell cycle may also include a g0 (g zero) phase. In g0, the cell stops replicating and dividing: a cell goes into g0 if it senses a lack of growth factors, nutrients or other molecules that are necessary for the cell cycle to continue.

Select one:

a. In a eukaryotic organism, the signals for cell division are usually not related to the environment but to the function of the entire organism.

b. Eukaryotic cells constantly divide whenever environmental conditions are adequate and the cells are large enough.

c. The linear chromosomes in prokaryotes are constantly being updated.
