  • The cell cycle is the series of events that occur between one mitotic division and another.
  • S phase involves synthesis of new DNA molecules.
  • G1 phase involves growth and preparation for DNA replication.
  • tRNA molecules carry amino acids and line up along the mRNA sequence matching complementary base pairs.
  • Interphase consists of three stages: G1, S, and G2.
  • The cell cycle is the series of events that occur between one mitotic division and the next.
  • Messenger RNA acts as a template for protein synthesis during translation.
  • G1 phase is when cells grow, proteins are made, and organelles divide.
  • Mitosis consists of four stages: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
  • Mitosis consists of four stages: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
  • Mitosis occurs during the M stage of the cell cycle.
  • Mitosis occurs during the M stage of the cell cycle.
  • During interphase, cells grow and divide into two daughter cells.
  • During interphase, cells grow and divide into two daughter cells.
  • During interphase, cells grow and divide into two daughter cells.
  • Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases attach specific amino acids to their corresponding tRNAs.
  • Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases attach specific amino acids to their corresponding tRNAs.
  • Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases attach specific amino acids to their corresponding tRNAs.
  • During interphase, cells grow and prepare to divide by making copies of their chromosomes.
  • During interphase, cells grow and prepare to divide by making copies of their chromosomes.
  • During interphase, cells grow and prepare to divide by making copies of their chromosomes.
  • Prophase: Chromatin condenses into chromosomes, nuclear envelope breaks down, centrioles move to opposite poles, spindle fibers form, and kinetochore microtubules attach to kinetochores on sister chromatids.
  • Cytokinesis divides the cytoplasm to form two identical daughter cells.
  • Mitosis is the process whereby a eukaryotic cell divides into two daughter cells with identical sets of chromosomes.
  • During translation, ribosomes read the genetic code on mRNA and link amino acids together into polypeptide chains according to the instructions provided by the nucleotides.
  • Metaphase: Sister chromatids line up at equatorial plate (metaphase plate), kinetochore microtubules attached to kinetochores pull chromosomes towards center of cell.
  • Chromatin is made up of DNA wrapped around proteins called histones.
  • In eukaryotes, the nucleus contains most of an organism's genetic material.
  • Translation occurs at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) or free in the cytoplasm.
  • S phase is where DNA replicates to make two copies of chromosomes.
  • S phase is where DNA replication occurs to produce two identical copies of chromosomes.
  • G2 phase is when more proteins are produced and organelles duplicate again.
  • During mitosis, chromosomes condense into X-shaped structures called chromatids.
  • During interphase, DNA replicates to form two identical copies.
  • During interphase, DNA replicates to form two identical copies.
  • During mitosis, chromosomes condense into X-shaped structures called chromatids.
  • During mitosis, chromosomes condense into X-shaped structures called chromatids.
  • During interphase, DNA replicates to form two identical copies of chromosomes.
  • During interphase, DNA replicates to form two identical copies of chromosomes.
  • During interphase, the nucleus contains only one set of chromosomes (diploid).
