  2. Interphase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interphase

    The duration of time spent in interphase and in each stage of interphase is variable and depends on both the type of cell and the species of organism it belongs to. Most cells of adult mammals spend about 24 hours in interphase; this accounts for about 90%-96% of the total time involved in cell division. [4] Interphase includes G1, S, and G2 ...

  3. Leptotene stage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leptotene_stage

    The homologous chromosomes begin pairing and association along their lengths, facilitated by lateral (axial) elements of the synaptonemal complex protein structure that forms between the homologs. [4] The synaptonemal complex consists of two lateral elements associated with each homolog, and a central region where they are held together.

  4. Human reproduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_reproduction

    Chance of fertilization by menstrual cycle day relative to ovulation [15] Pregnancy rates for sexual intercourse are highest during the menstrual cycle time from some 5 days before until 1 to 2 days after ovulation. [16] For optimal pregnancy chance, there are recommendations of sexual intercourse every 1 or 2 days, [17] or every 2 or 3 days. [18]

  5. Cell division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_division

    The cell cycle in eukaryotes: I = Interphase, M = Mitosis, G 0 = Gap 0, G 1 = Gap 1, G 2 = Gap 2, S = Synthesis, G 3 = Gap 3. Cell division is the process by which a parent cell divides into two daughter cells. [1] Cell division usually occurs as part of a larger cell cycle in which the cell grows and replicates its chromosome(s) before dividing.

  6. Childbirth - Wikipedia

    If the presenting fetal part is above the spines, the distance is measured and described as minus stations, which range from −1 to −4 cm. If the presenting part is below the ischial spines, the distance is stated as plus stations ( +1 to +4 cm). At +3 and +4 the presenting part is at the perineum and can be seen. [32]

  7. Cell cycle checkpoint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle_checkpoint

    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. Cell cycle checkpoints are control mechanisms in the eukaryotic cell cycle which ensure its

  8. Folliculogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folliculogenesis

    1 - Menstruation 2 - Developing follicle 3 - Mature follicle 4 - Ovulation 5 - Corpus luteum 6 - Deterioration of corpus luteum. In biology, folliculogenesis is the maturation of the ovarian follicle, a densely packed shell of somatic cells that contains an immature oocyte.

  9. Meiosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meiosis

    The preparatory steps that lead up to meiosis are identical in pattern and name to interphase of the mitotic cell cycle. [10] Interphase is divided into three phases: Growth 1 (G 1) phase: In this very active phase, the cell synthesizes its vast array of proteins, including the enzymes and structural proteins it will need for growth. In G 1 ...
