The eukaryotic cell cycle consists of four distinct phases: G 1 phase, S phase (synthesis), G 2 phase (collectively known as interphase) and M phase (mitosis and cytokinesis). M phase is itself composed of two tightly coupled processes: mitosis, in which the cell's nucleus divides, and cytokinesis, in which the cell's cytoplasm and cell membrane divides forming two daughter cells.
Studies in male mouse meiosis have shown that after DNA damaging treatments like gamma irradiation, two types of repair responses occur depending on the meiotic stage: [5] From leptotene to early pachytene, exogenous DNA damage triggers widespread presence of the repair protein gammaH2AX in the nucleus, associated with homologous recombination ...
G 2 (Gap 2), in which the cell resumes its growth in preparation for division. The cell continues to grow until mitosis begins. In plants, chloroplasts divide during G2. In addition, some cells that do not divide often or ever, enter a stage called G 0 (Gap zero), which is either a stage separate from interphase or an extended G 1.
Interphase is the process through which a cell must go before mitosis, meiosis, and cytokinesis. [15] Interphase consists of three main phases: G 1, S, and G 2. G 1 is a time of growth for the cell where specialized cellular functions occur in order to prepare the cell for DNA replication. [16]
Interphase stage is not necessary to be shown at the beginning because meiosis contain several important stages and adding that stage would make the diagram longer and also Interphase is already depicted in mitosis diagram .

Steps of the cell cycle. The restriction point occurs between the G 1 and S phases of interphase. The G 2-M checkpoint occurs between the G 2 and M phases. The spindle checkpoint occurs during the M phase. Key cyclins associated with each phase are shown.
