G0 Stage – Some cells in the adult animals do not appear to exhibit division (e.g., heart cells) and many other cells divide only occasionally, as needed to replace cells that have been lost because of injury or cell death. These cells that do not divide further exit G1 phase to enter an inactive stage called quiescent stage (G0) of the cell cycle. Cells in this stage remain metabolically active but no longer proliferate unless called on to do so depending on the requirement of the organism
🧬 Gâ‚€ Phase – Quiescence in the Cell Cycle In adult animals, not all cells keep dividing. Some cells, like neurons and heart muscle cells, stop dividing after development and enter a state called the Gâ‚€ phase, also known as the quiescent phase. This phase is reached from the G1 phase — not directly from […]
