Cell Cycle Phases and Processes

The map in words

  • Cell Cycle Begins
    • Interphase - Growth Phase
      • G1 Phase 30-40% of cycle RNA + Protein synthesis
        • S Phase 30-50% of cycle DNA Replication Each chromosome becomes 2 chromatids
          • G2 Phase 10-20% of cycle Organelle duplication Spindle proteins
            • M-Phase - Division Phase
              • Karyokinesis Nuclear Division
                • Prophase Longest phase
                  • Metaphase Chromosomes at equator
                    • Anaphase Shortest phase
