What does a dividing cell generally do during G1?

The first gap phase after cell division, during which a cell grows and carries out normal functions before DNA synthesis.

DNA duplication occurs during the {{c1::S phase}} of interphase.

Where does G2 fall in the cell cycle?

The gap phase after DNA synthesis, during which the cell prepares for mitosis.

The mitotic stage in which chromosomes align at the cell equator, forming the metaphase plate.

What happens to sister chromatids during anaphase?

What is inside

Introductory cell biology practice: 50 flashcards and 50 quizzes covering plasma membrane structure, passive and active transport, organelles, the cytoskeleton, cell-cycle phases and regulation, signaling categories, apoptosis and necrosis, and stem-cell potency. Concepts and 23 learning objectives support topic-specific practice. Basic mechanisms are country-neutral and use American English. The set does not claim complete cell biology coverage or demonstrate clinical treatment decisions. Flashcards use six formats for recall, definitions, explanations, and contrasts.
