The Cell Cycle and Mitosis• Cell Division in Prokaryotes– Prokaryotes hav one circular chromosome– Binary Fission- the division of a prokaryotic cell
into two offspring cells• DNA is copied, forming two identical chromosomes• Cell grows until it reaches approximately twice the cell’s
original size
• Cell division in Eukaryotes–Cell Cycle –repeating set of events in life of
cell– Interphase- time between cell divisions• G1 phase- cells grow to mature size• S phase- cell’s DNA is copied (synthesized)• G2 phase- Time during which cell prepare fro
cell division–Cell Division:• Mitosis- the nucleus of cell divides• Cytokinesis- division of cell’s cytoplasm
