Best of cell cycle and cell division short notes for fresh neet aspirants
This is the unique short note on the high weightage chapter, cell cycle and cell division which must be read at least once by each fresh Neet aspirant. What is cell cycle: Just like our life cycle, newly formed cells start growing in size by doubling the cell contents. This growth phase involves Gap1,S and Gap2 phase, for duplication of cytoplasmic substances , DNA replication and synthesis of substances for the cell division respectively. These orderly events in sequence from formation to division of the cell are called cell cycles. Main steps of the Cell cycle: The two main steps of cell cycle are, Longest interphase, M-phase or cell division phase Interphase of cell cycle: It is the so-called resting phase where no visible changes are found. But, this phase is energetically and metabolically the most active stage. Cytoplasmic biomolecules and most of the organelles double in G1 phase. DNA content doubles in synthetic phase but chromosome numbers remain same. This means each chromoso...
