Cell Cycle and Genes - Mitosis and Meiosis

Explore the intricate process of cell division in this comprehensive 56-minute lecture on the cell cycle, mitosis, and meiosis. Delve into the series of events that occur within a cell, leading to its division into two daughter cells. Learn about DNA replication, organelle duplication, and the partitioning of cellular components. Understand the main stages of the cell cycle in eukaryotic cells, including interphase and the mitotic phase, as well as the differences in prokaryotic cell division. Discover the importance of cell cycle checkpoints in ensuring proper replication and division. Examine the significance of the cell-division cycle in organism development and tissue renewal. Cover key topics such as the G1 phase, stages of mitosis, labile cells, and metaphase. Gain valuable insights from Dr. Najeeb's expert explanation of this fundamental biological process.
