    Figure 2 shows a cartoon of how this is generally envisioned to occur, while Figure 3 shows an animation of when different segments replicate in one type of human cell. Replication timing profiles [ edit ]

  3. Biological life cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_life_cycle

    The cycles differ in when mitosis (growth) occurs. Zygotic meiosis and gametic meiosis have one mitotic stage: mitosis occurs during the n phase in zygotic meiosis and during the 2n phase in gametic meiosis. Therefore, zygotic and gametic meiosis are collectively termed "haplobiontic" (single mitotic phase, not to be confused with haplontic).

  5. Cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle

    The eukaryotic cell cycle consists of four distinct phases: G 1 phase, S phase (synthesis), G 2 phase (collectively known as interphase) and M phase (mitosis and cytokinesis). M phase is itself composed of two tightly coupled processes: mitosis, in which the cell's nucleus divides, and cytokinesis, in which the cell's cytoplasm and cell membrane divides forming two daughter cells.

  6. Mitotic cell rounding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitotic_cell_rounding

    In 1935, one of the first published accounts of mitotic rounding in live tissue described cell rounding in the pseudostratified epithelium of the mammalian neural tube. [1] Sauer noticed that cells in mitosis rounded up to the apical , or luminal, surface of the columnar epithelium before dividing and returning to their elongated morphology .

  7. Spindle checkpoint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spindle_checkpoint

    Three types of cell division: binary fission (taking place in prokaryotes), mitosis and meiosis (taking place in eukaryotes).. When cells are ready to divide, because cell size is big enough or because they receive the appropriate stimulus, [20] they activate the mechanism to enter into the cell cycle, and they duplicate most organelles during S (synthesis) phase, including their centrosome.

    Mitosis in an animal cell (phases ordered counter-clockwise), with G 2 labeled at bottom. Schematic karyogram of the human chromosomes, showing their usual state in the G 0 and G 1 phase of the cell cycle. At top center it also shows the chromosome 3 pair after having undergone DNA synthesis, occurring in the S phase (annotated as S) of the ...

  9. Telophase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telophase

    Spindle depolymerization during telophase occurs from the plus end and is, in this way, a reversal of spindle assembly. [12] Subsequent microtubule array assembly is, unlike that of the polarized spindle, interpolar.
