Textbook Question
Chapter 3, Problem 31P
The cell cycle operates in the same way in all eukaryotes, from single-celled yeast to humans, and all share numerous genes whose functions are essential for the normal progression of the cycle. Discuss why you think this is the case.

- What is the major difference between M phase and interphase of the cell cycle? We can see activity within the cell only during M phase. Interphase is when the cell divides, whereas M phase is where it is mute. We can see activity within the cell only during interphase.
