Hurricane Odile was the most powerful storm to hit Cabo San Lucas on the Baja California peninsula in Mexico. A Category 3 hurricane when it made landfall, Odile had winds of 125 mph. But the hurricane is losing strength as it moves north.
The cell cycle or cell-division cycle is the series of events that take place in a cell leading to its division and duplication of its DNA (DNA replication) to produce two daughter cells. In bacteria, which lack a cell nucleus, the cell cycle is divided into the B, C, and D periods. The B period extends from the end of cell division to the beginning of DNA replication. DNA replication occurs during the C period.
The process of copying the double-stranded DNA molecule is called replication. Prokaryotes replicate their DNA (the nucleoid) throughout the interval between cell divisions. In eukaryotes, the timing of replication in the nucleus is highly regulated.Article Summary: A cell must copy its DNA before it divides, so that both daughter cells have a complete copy of the genetic information.This article explains replication.rticle Summary: A cell must copy its DNA before it divides, so that both daughter cells have a complete copy of the genetic information.
