The largest portion of the cell cycle, interphase, makes up 90% of a cell's life cycle and is the stage for growing and performing the cellular functions specific to that cell. The interphase is further divided into two G phases- G1 and G2- and an S phase. During these phases, the cell grows by producing various proteins and cytoplasmic organelles. During the S phase, the cell replicates its genome in preparation for cell division or mitosis. Mitosis occurs during the M phase, which occurs after interphase. Mitosis is conventionally divided into 5 phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase, and cytokinesis. In interphase, a nuclear envelope surrounds the nucleus, the DNA is replicated in the S phase, and the sister chromatids join together at the central portion of the chromosome - the centromere. To organize the chromosome motion in the cell to help make division efficient as well as ensure all material is present in both daughter cells, the cell has centrosomes at each pole of the cell. Centrosomes organize the fibers of the mitotic spindle during mitosis, that will help pull the sister chromatids apart." #biology #premed #biomajor #cellbiology #molecularbiology #immunology

I feel so incredibly grateful to live my life as a scientist. I’ve hit a balance now of loving my career but also knowing that im so much more than my job. It holds a special place in my heart, but I have many goals outside of my career goals. I also love that my career has not been a straight line, and I’ve learned so much along the way. I never saw myself in biotech, but I am so glad i transitioned into industry. I also have been reflecting on how grateful I am to be in this field. I LOVE biology and mystery, and everyday I’m doing something that chips away at that mystery, SO exciting! Any birthday twins out there? I feel so old and so young turning 27 today HAHA #biotech #stemmajor #biomajor #womeninstem #careeradvice
