cell cycle There are three major regulatory cell cycle checkpoints - at the G1S boundary, in the S-phase and during G2M phases A cell can only pass through these

cell wall The primary cell cycle checkpoint involved is the G2S checkpoint which evaluates the cell size, nutrient availability, and integrity of the DNA The cell cycle is a 4-stage process consisting of Gap 1 , synthesis , Gap 2 , and mitosis , which a cell undergoes as it grows and divides After
