Cell Cycle Flashcards
1
Q
List in order all the steps of the cell cycle.
A
G1/G0 –> S –> G2 –> M
2
Q
What happens in G1 of the cell cycle?
A
Make mRNA and proteins to prep for mitosis
3
Q
What happens in G0 of the cell cycle?
A
A cell will enter G0 if it DOES NOT need to divide
4
Q
G1 Checkpoint
A
Cell decides if it should divide. P53 in charge

Q
What is the role of S?
A
DNA replicated
6
Q

A
Cell growth. Make organelles
7
Q
What happens at the G2 checkpoint?
A
Check cell size & organelles
8
Q
What occurs at M in the cell cycle?
