Introduction :
The fundamental structural and functional component of every living thing is the cell. It is the fundamental component that, when united with other cells of a similar type, forms tissues and organs. The cell goes through a sequence of processes that cause the cell to divide and produce two copies of its DNA. This is called cell cycle.

- Differentiate between mitotic cell division and meiotic cell division in terms of their products.arrow_forwardThe cell cycle is typically thought of as having four stages. Describe the stages of the cell cycle and identify the mechanism(s) involved in progressing or not progressing through the stages with reference to proteins and signalling processes involved. Please keep brief - 10 sentences/dot points max.arrow_forwardDescribe the mitotic spindle. Include what it is made of, how it forms, and what its role is in cell division.arrow_forward
- The cell cycle is highly regulated and involves many steps to ensure that a cell is ready to divide. For this reason, cells cycle between interphase and mitosis. Which of the following describes the consequence of a severe disruption of interphase in cells in healthy tissue? Disruption of interphase will have no effect on mitosis because they are two completely independent processes. Disruption of interphase will lead to a faster and more efficient mitotic cycle, which will result in increased cell division and tissue growth. Disruption of interphase will trigger the cell to switch to a mitotic phase and repeatedly divide, which will result in the massive proliferation of the cells and heightened tissue growth. Disruption of interphase will result in the cell being unable to synthesize proteins and organelles required to divide, which will result in the cell not passing key checkpoints and ceasing to divide.arrow_forwardLabel each stage of the cell cycle and describe the events that occurarrow_forwardDescribe the cell cycle overall (not each phase). What is interphase, what are the G phases, and what is S phase?arrow_forward
