Describe the purpose of cell cycle checkpoints.

What are checkpoints? List some of the important checkpoints in the cell cycle.

Describe the two most important outcomes of the cell cycle.

Describe the mitotic spindle. Include what it is made of, how it forms, and what its role is in cell division.

Explain the function of the G₁, G₂ and metaphase checkpoints.

What is the significance of the cell cycle control system and checkpoints? Explain step by step in your own words. [please make it simple]

Can cell cycle checkpoints fail? If so what are some examples of the results the can occur if they fail?

1) List and briefly describe three major cell cycle checkpoints. For each checkpoint,predict the consequences if the checkpoint fails to work properly. 2) Explain why mitosis does not produce genetic variation and how meiosis leads to the production of tremendous genetic variation.

What factors needed to proceed with the cell cycle of Mitotic checkpoint?

Describe the key stages of the Interphase part of the cell cycle.
