Cell division and apoptosis a) The cell cycle is divided into different phases (named M, G0, G1, S and G2). Can you explain what happens during the different parts of the cycle and how to control it? b) What is the difference between apoptosis and necrosis? c) What are caspases and what is their function in the cell?
Oogenesis
The formation of the ovum (mature female gamete) from undifferentiated germ cells is called oogenesis. This process takes place in the ovaries (female gonads). Oogenesis consists of three stages known as the multiplication phase, growth phase, and maturation phase.
Cell Division
Cell division involves the formation of new daughter cells from the parent cells. It is a part of the cell cycle that takes place in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Cell division is required for three main reasons:
