What types of cell replication occurs in eukaryotic cells?
MITOSIS The cell cycle as seen here is in Mitosis: G1 = growth of cell size S = synthesis stage (chromosomes and replication of DNA) G2= prep for mitosis Cyclin, is a protein that is used to control the cell cycle. In Mitosis, diploid cells are replicated into two 2n daughter cells. This basically means the daughter cells or replicated cells contain the same pair of chromosomes as the original cell that was being replicated. • Interphase- cell is growing larger and getting ready for cell replication • Prophase – condensation of chromosomes • Metaphase – spindle fibers, centromere, centrioles are developed at the polar ends of the cell, and where the chromosomes line up at the middle of the cell • anaphase – spindle fibers grabs the centromeres of the chromatids and pulls the chromosome pairs in half to the polar ends • Telophase – the stage in which the cell begins to pinch off at the middle • Cytokineses – the final separation of the cell, resulting 2 daughter cells of the same copies
