Cell cycle, Mitosis and Meiosis Cell division *Functions of cell division: *reproduction *growth and development *repair
The Mitotic Cell Cycle *Mitotic phase vs. interphase Subphases of interphase: *G1 – first gap *S – synthesis *G2 – second gap
Chromosome duplication and distribution during cell division Structural organization of the genome *chromosomes Chromosome duplication and distribution during cell division
An overview of mitosis
Mitosis Late Interphase Prophase Prometaphase
Mitosis Metaphase Anaphase Telophase *cytokinesis
