Study Guide Overview

This study guide covers the cell cycle, focusing on checkpoints (G1, G2, Metaphase), the Cdk-Cyclin complex, key genes like p53, cancerous cells, and apoptosis. It explains their roles in regulating cell division and how disruptions can lead to cancer. Practice questions and exam tips are also included.
