The cell cycle‚ or cell-division cycle‚ is the series of events that take place in a cell leading to its division and duplication that produces two daughter cells. In cells without a nucleus‚ the cell cycle occurs via a process termed binary fission. In cells with a nucleus‚ the cell cycle can be divided in three periods: interphase—during which the cell grows‚ accumulating nutrients needed for mitosis preparing it for cell division and duplicating its DNA—and the mitotic phase‚ during which the
