When a cell divides it must go through a process called mitosis. Mitosis is a process that describes the various steps that occur in a cell before and after initial division
The cell cycle as its most commonly called consist of the
- G1- cell growth begins
- S- Protein synthesis and chromosomal replication occurs
- G2- cell now has duplicate copies of chromosomes
- M Phase- centrioles lock onto each end of the chromosomes and then pull them apart to make two cells
Terms (chromosome - super coiled DNA wounded together with histones)
All of the above is moderated by two molecules called "CDK-Cyclin"
