1. Cell Division

2. Chromosomes  Are made of DNA  Each chromosome consists of sister chromatids attached at a centromere

4. Cell Cycle  During the cell cycle, a cell grows, prepares for division, and divides to form 2 daughter cells, each with each of which then begins the cycle again.  Interphase – time for growth and regular cell activity.  Most of a cells life is spent in Interphase.

5. Mitosis  The division of somatic or regular cells.  Its divided into 4 phases.  Remember Interphase is NOT part of Mitosis.

6. Regulating the Cycle  A protein call cyclin helps regulate the cell cycle in eukaryotic cells.  They respond to internal and external events. These proteins are regulators.
