  2. Cytokinesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokinesis

    Cytokinesis illustration Ciliate undergoing cytokinesis, with the cleavage furrow being clearly visible. Cytokinesis (/ ˌ s aɪ t oʊ k ɪ ˈ n iː s ɪ s /) is the part of the cell division process and part of mitosis during which the cytoplasm of a single eukaryotic cell divides into two daughter cells.

  3. Cytokine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokine

    Cytokines (/'saɪ.tə.kaɪn/) [1] are a broad and loose category of small proteins (~5–25 kDa [2]) important in cell signaling. Due to their size, cytokines cannot cross the lipid bilayer of cells to enter the cytoplasm and therefore typically exert their functions by interacting with specific cytokine receptors on the target cell surface.

  4. Cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle

    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.

  5. Cell division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_division

    At the peak of the cyclin, attached to the cyclin dependent kinases this system pushes the cell out of interphase and into the M phase, where mitosis, meiosis, and cytokinesis occur. [19] There are three transition checkpoints the cell has to go through before entering the M phase. The most important being the G 1-S transition checkpoint. If ...

  6. Cytokinin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokinin

    Cytokinins (CK) are a class of plant hormones that promote cell division, or cytokinesis, in plant roots and shoots. They are involved primarily in cell growth and differentiation , but also affect apical dominance , axillary bud growth, and leaf senescence .

    Alcohol is used as a social lubricant, maybe more so as holiday festivities approach. But drinking carries health and other risks. Here are five tips to make it safer.

  8. Mitosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitosis

    The end of cytokinesis marks the end of the M-phase. There are many cells where mitosis and cytokinesis occur separately, forming single cells with multiple nuclei. The most notable occurrence of this is among the fungi, slime molds, and coenocytic algae, but the phenomenon is found in various other organisms.
