The cell division cycle or the cycle is a series of events that takes place in a cell which causes the cell into two daughter cells. It consists of two primary phasesInterphaseM phaseInterphase: It is an active phase between subsequent cell divisions. This consists of multiple phases. These areG0: It is the resting phase between cell divisionsG1: The cell shows metabolic activity and grows continuouslyS phase: DNA duplication takes place in this phaseG2: Protein synthesis takes placeQuiescent stage: The cell does not undergo further division and exits the G1 stage and enter the inactive stage.M phase: Cell division takes place in this phase. It consists of 2 phases:KaryokinesisCytokinesis
