    Prescott's Microbiology 9th Edition by Joanne Willey, Linda Sherwood, Christopher J. Woolverton



Cell Cycle Notes:

Cell cycle is divided into two main stages in eukaryotes and these stages are mitotic (M) phase (including cytokinesis and mitosis) and interphase. Cell grows during the phase of interphase and accumulates nutrients that are needed for mitosis and it also goes through DNA replication to prepare the cell for cell division.
