What occurs during interphase?

Interphase is the longest stage of the cell cycle and can be divided into 3 phases: G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase. The newly formed cell matures during the G1 phase. If the cell is going to divide, it enters the S (synthesis) phase where the DNA is replicated and the G2 phase where more growth occurs.

What occurs in animal cell cytokinesis?
During cytokinesis of animal cells, microtubules wrap around the equator of the cell to create an invagination or indention and cinch the microtubule belt until the cell membranes meet and pinch off to create 2 daughter cells.
What occurs in plant cell cytokinesis?
During cytokinesis of plant cells, the cell wall CANNOT indent; therefore, at the equator a cell plate (or equatorial plate) form from vesicles to become a new cell wall.
What event occurs during the G1 phase?
the newly formed cell grows to maturity. Some cells will stay in a resting state after mature called the G0 (G zero) phase until the cell needs to divide.
What event occurs during the S phase?
DNA is synthesized through a process called DNA replication.
Define ChromatiN.
Form of DNA when it is unorganized.
Define Chromosome.
Form of DNA when it is organized.
Dyad chromosome
a replicated chromosome that consists of 2 identical, sister chromatids joined at the centromere. (double chromosome, looks like an X)
Monad Chromosome
one strand of DNA organized. This form is often referred to as a chromatiD
ChromatiD
form of a chromosome that is one strand of DNA organized
centromere
location where the sister chromatids are joined after DNA replication.
What is G2 phase?
