  2. Interphase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interphase

    In interphase, the cell gets itself ready for mitosis or meiosis. Somatic cells , or normal diploid cells of the body, go through mitosis in order to reproduce themselves through cell division, whereas diploid germ cells (i.e., primary spermatocytes and primary oocytes ) go through meiosis in order to create haploid gametes (i.e., sperm and ova ...

  4. Cell division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_division

    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] There are checkpoints during interphase that allow ...

  5. Cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle

    Interphase represents the phase between two successive M phases. Interphase is a series of changes that takes place in a newly formed cell and its nucleus before it becomes capable of division again. It is also called preparatory phase or intermitosis. Typically interphase lasts for at least 91% of the total time required for the cell cycle.

  6. Interkinesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interkinesis

    Interkinesis or interphase II is a period of rest that cells of some species enter during meiosis between meiosis I and meiosis II. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] No DNA replication occurs during interkinesis; however, replication does occur during the interphase I stage of meiosis (See meiosis I ).

  7. Replication timing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replication_timing

    Figure 1: Schematic of the cell cycle. outer ring: I = Interphase, M = Mitosis; inner ring: M = Mitosis, G 1 = Gap 1, G 2 = Gap 2, S = Synthesis; not in ring: G 0 = Gap 0/Resting. Replication timing refers to the order in which segments of DNA along the length of a chromosome are duplicated.

  8. G1 phase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G1_phase

    G 1 phase together with the S phase and G 2 phase comprise the long growth period of the cell cycle cell division called interphase that takes place before cell division in mitosis (M phase). [1] During G 1 phase, the cell grows in size and synthesizes mRNA and protein that are required for DNA synthesis. Once the required proteins and growth ...
