The eukaryotic cell at left is in the processof cytoplasmic division. Is this cell from aplant or an animal? How do you know?
How long does it take for a cell to take one complete cycle? The answer varies on the type of cell and the species. For instance, a liver cell completes its cell cycle for over 22 hours (Becker and Lane 1965) while other somatic cell lasts to about 18 hours. Can you cite other types of cells that undergo cell cycle and the time it takes to complete the cycle? List five below.
You observe a cell that is undergoing mitosis. You see double-stranded chromosomes and a partial nuclear membrane. What phase is this cell in?
