Understand that the cell cycle consists of interphase and the mitotic phase. Interphase is the period of growth and DNA replication, while the mitotic phase includes mitosis and cytokinesis.
Recognize that interphase is divided into three main stages: G1 (Gap 1), S (Synthesis), and G2 (Gap 2). These stages prepare the cell for division.
G1 phase is where the cell grows and carries out normal functions. It is also a checkpoint for the cell to ensure it is ready for DNA replication.
S phase is where DNA replication occurs, resulting in the duplication of chromosomes.
G2 phase is the final stage of interphase, where the cell continues to grow and prepares for mitosis, ensuring all DNA is replicated and undamaged.
