This diagram represents the cell cycle in eukaryotes. The cell cycle depicts the life of an eukaryotic cell. The cell cycle has four phases: the first growth or gap G 1 phase, the synthesis S phase, the second growth or gap G 2 phase and the mitotic M phase. The M phase includes mitosis and cytokinesis. The cell spends the majority of the cycle in the first three phases G 1 , S, G 2 of the cycle, collectively known as interphase. After cytokinesis, two genetically identical daughter cells are formed.
