Sažetak
The cell cycle (CC) or cell-division cycle is a series of events that take place in a cell leading to its division and duplication (replication) what results with the production of two daughter cells. In prokaryotes which lack a cell nucleus, the CC occurs via a process termed binary fission. In eukaryotic cells which have a nucleus, the CC is divided into three parts: interphase, the mitotic (M) phase, and cytokinesis. During interphase, the cells growth, accumulate the nutrients necessary for mitosis, and prepare for DNA duplication as well as cell division. Within the mitotic phase, the cell splits itself into two assigned daughter cells. In the course of the final stage, cytokinesis, the new cell is completely divided. To provide the correct division of the cell, there are control mechanisms known as CC checkpoints. After cell division, each of the daughter cells begins the interphase of a new cycle. Although the various stages of interphase are usually not morphologically discernible, each phase of the CC has a defined set of specialized biochemical processes that prepare the cell for initiation of cell division. Cell division is a vital process by which skin, hair, blood cells and certain internal organs are renewed. With that process also fertilized egg develops into mature organisms.
