Document Summary

Biol207- lecture 1- eukaryotic cell cycle and life cycle. There are four important stages in a cells life cycle: gap 1, s interphase, gap 2, mitosis. Gap 1(g1: cell does its normal cellular functions. S phase: dna synthesis, each chromosome is replicated and has two sister chromatids, sister chromatids are attached in the centromere. Gap 2 (g2: continues growth, makes protein needed for cell division, any mistakes in replication are checked and fixed/ die. Some important points to note: cells that undergo meiosis, do not usually go under g2, nervous cells enter g0 phase- permanent, non-dividing, never leave g1 phase. Stages of mitosis (2n to 2n: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis. Metaphase: microtubules attach to kinetochores (region of chromosome where microtubules attach- contains the centromere and proteins, chromosomes align along the middle of the cell (metaphase plate) Anaphase: each chromatid is pulled to opposite poles. Cytokinesis: partitioning of the cytoplasm, two identical daughter cells.
