Cell Cycle

The Cell CycleFrom Interphase to Cytokinesis

By Jesse Kazemir

InterphaseInterphase is the main life of a cell, where the cell grows, and carries out its function. Centrioles and chromosomes form.

Growth and Preparation

DNA Replication

Continued Growth and Preparation

Mitosis Mitosis is the stage in cell division where the parts of the cell are duplicated/divided.

Early ProphaseProphase: the nuclear membrane and nucleolus start to disappear, spindle fibers start to form

Late Prophase

MetaphaseMetaphase: the spindle fibers pull chromosomes to the centre of the cell

AnaphaseAnaphase: spindle fibers contract and shorten, sister chromatids separate

TelophaseTelophase: the spindle fibers start to disappear, nuclear membrane and nucleolus form

Cytokinesis Cytokinesis: the final stage of cell cycle, the membrane pinches together, and the cell divides
