Key Stage 4 Foundation
Meaning
The Cell Cycle is the process of growth and division that leads to to the formation of new cells.
About the Cell Cycle
The Cell Cycle consists of 3 stages:
- Stage 1 - The cell grows, the DNA is made into two copies and more organelles are made.
- Stage 2 - Mitosis in which the nucleus divides inside the cell.
- Stage 3 - The cell splits into two identical daughter cells.
Key Stage 4 Higher
Meaning
The Cell Cycle is the process of growth and division that leads to to the formation of new cells.
About the Cell Cycle
The Cell Cycle consists of 3 stages:
- Interphase - The first stage in which the cell grows, the DNA is made into two copies and more organelles are made.
- Mitosis - The second stage in which the nucleus divides inside the cell.
- Cytokinesis - The final stage in which the cell splits into two identical daughter cells.
