this bit says that the nucleus breaks down in prophase. Correct me if im wrong but i thought this happened in telephase.

== Mitosis ==

There are six stages in the process of mitosis. THe first stage, Interphase, cells may spend most of its life in. The second stage is prophase where the nuclear membrane and nucleus disappear. Metaphase, stage three, is the process of spindle fibers attatching to centromeres. Stage four, Anaphase, spindle fibers split the sister chromatids. THe fifth stage,Telephase,nuclear membrane and nucleus start to reappear and the cell starts to split in two. The final stage of mitosis is cytokinesis, cytoplasm divides and two identical daughter cells are formed. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 00:07, 4 November 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->



– This is a common misconception, mitosis consists of only 4 stages, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase (PMAT), Interphase and Cytokinesis are not considered part of the process of mitosis as they are not involved in the actual division of the cell nucleus. Interphase is responsible for preparing a cell to ENTER mitosis and Cytokinesis is responsible for the complete division of a cell's cytoplasm. ] (]) 03:15, 13 August 2019 (UTC) SwoodyJr

Nerve cells

Currently the page lists nerve cells as cells which enter interphase for extended periods of time:

Some cells, such as nerve cells, can stay in interphase for decades.

Are nerve cells really in interphase here or are they in G0? I would think that, metabolically speaking, nerve cells are in G0. Cells in interphase grow and get ready to divide.

once again why isn't this part of cell cycle...there are so many articles about the cell cycle why can't we just put them into one? Nominaladversary 01:56, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Wrong phase?

'In prophase the two chromatids are still connected by something called ened in telephase.

interphase

There should be a better description of G1, S, and G2.


G1- major growth occurs along with metobolic activity

S- DNA synthesis and duplication of chromosomes

G2- mitochondria and other organelles are manufactured while the cell is prepared for mitosis

Listing inconsistent Cell Cycle phases and "First"

If the text "Interphase is the first part of the Cell Cycle. The Cell Cycle includes three stages: Interphase, Mitosis, and Cytokinesis." is to be included in Interphase then there are a few questions:

Where is the citation?
Why put cell cycle information in Interphase when there is a complete description in Cell Cycle?
Why add the description " ...includes three stages: Interphase, Mitosis, and Cytokinesis.." when this is inconsistent with the description in Cell Cycle and {{Cell Cycle}} that appears, amongst other places, at the bottom of Interphase?
How can a cycle that has occurred for hundreds of millions of years have a step that can be meaningfully called the "first part"?

  • In WP it is pretty common to overlap content between articles (it would be impossible not to) in order to show context for an article. I don't feel that the idea that there are three stages of the cell cycle is incorrect or inconsistent with the cell cycle menu or article, merely a simplification (common in a general encyclopedia). What do you see as the other stages that are not included in this? Do you think there are more or less?

    • I've added, to the interphase article three sentences which, I believe, meet you concerns and are consistent with related articles. And rather than using the term cytokinesis, I used metaphase which is consistent with the related articles.

      Does this meet with your agreement? If you concur; I will add the appropriate citations.
