Interphase
is the
longest
phase of the cell cycle, where the cell
grows
and
prepares
for
division.
During
interphase
, the
chromosomes
and
everything
in the cell are
copied.
mitosis
is where the
chromosomes
line up in the
centre
and are then
pulled apart
as the cell begins to
divide
and the
nucleus
divides.
cytokinesis
is when the
cytoplasm divides
and a
new cell membrane forms
, resulting in
two daughter cells.
The type of
cell division
that happens during
growth and repair
is
mitosis.
bacteria
multiply
by
simple cell division
, which is called
binary fission.
Everything in the cell is
copied.
Cells need energy from
respiration
or
photosynthesis
to carry out the processes involved in the
cell cycle.
