1. The cell cycle consists of interphase and mitosis. Interphase includes G1, S, and G2 phases where the cell grows and duplicates its DNA. 2. Mitosis is divided into prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase where the duplicated chromosomes separate and new daughter cells form. 3. All stages of the cell cycle are described in detail, from the duplication of DNA and organelles in interphase to the alignment and separation of chromosomes during mitosis.

5. Cell Features
• Ribosomes - make protein for
use by the organism
• Cytoplasm - jelly-like goo on
the inside of the cell
• DNA - genetic material
• Cytoskeleton - the internal
framework of the cell
• Cell membrane - outer
boundary of the cell, some stuff
can cross the cell membrane.

7. Prokaryotic Cells
Prokaryotes are very simple cells, probably first to
inhabit the earth.
Prokaryotic cells do not contain a membrane bound
nucleus.

8. The eukaryotic cell is
composed of 4 main
parts:
1. cell membrane -
outer boundary of
the cell
2. cytoplasm - jelly-
like fluid interior of
the cell
3. nucleus - the
"control center" of
the cell, contains
the cell's DNA
(chromosomes)
4. organelles -
"little organs" that
carry out cell
functions
Eukaryotic Cells
Eukaryotic cells are more advanced cells. These
cells are found in plants, animals, and protists (small
unicellular "animalcules").

9. Make protein
Ribosomes
Located inside the nucleus, makes
ribosomes

Smooth ER - no ribosomes
Rough ER - ribosomes

Ribosomes are positioned along the rough

•Chromosomes do not replicate any further in this phase of
meiosis.
•The chromosomes begin migrating to the metaphase II plate
(at the cell's equator).
