What does cell cycle mean

Explanation:

a cell cycle is a series of events that take place in a cell and it grows and it divides a cell speeds most of its time and what is called interface and during this time it grows replicates into chromosomes and prepers for cell division.

here's an example of cell cycle with few exceptions ( for example, red blood cells) all the cells of living things undergo a few cycles the cell cycle is generally divided into two phases interface and mitosis during interface the cell spends most of its time performing the functions that make it unique

and how long does it cycle take usually cells will take between 5 and 6 hours to complete s phase. G2 is shorter lasting only 3 to 4 hours and most cells it's some then interface generally takes between 18 and 20 hours misosis during which the cell makes preparations for the complete cell division only takes about 2 hours

i hope this helps :)

prophase: we can observe the chromosomes to coil up and condense. they become visible. nuclear membrane and envelope disintigrate.s

metaphase: chromosomes align at the center, the metaphase plate. spindle fibers attach to centromeres of the sister chromatids. they meet at kinetochores.

anaphase: sister chromatids are pulled towards each opposing centromere, set on different poles.

telophase: chromosomes are now clustered up only on either sides of the cell. nuclear membranes reform, and a new cell wall forms along the cell plate. this will lead to cytokinesis, the process that divides the cell membrane and forms the cell wall.
