TermDefinition
Stages of the cell cycle - G1, S, G2, M, and cytokinesis
interphase - refers to G1, S, and G2 does not refer to M
G1 - Gap 1 During this stage, the cell grows
S - synthesis during this stage, the cell replicates its DNA in other words, it "synthesizes" a second copy of its DNA
G0 - a resting stage of the cell cycle in which DNA replication and cell division stop Nerve cells remain in this stage
G2 - During this stage, the cell prepares for mitosis and cytokinesis
M - Mitosis during this stage, the cell separates its two sets of chromosomes then, it puts those chromosomes into two separate nuclei
cytokinesis - when the cell splits into two cells often referred to as "division of the cytoplasm"
Parent cell - the cell that you start with it divides into two identical daughter cells "parent" does not refer to parents it's just a way of referring to the cell that is going to divide
Daughter cells - the two cells that result from cytokinesis they are identical to each other they are also identical to the parent cell (which no longer exists) "daughter" has nothing to do with gender it's just a way of referring to the new cells
