Exit the cell cycle and do not divide

Enter the cell cycle and start dividing
|
Detailed explanation-1: -After M phase, some cells do not divide further and exist G1 phase to enter an inactive stage called quiescent stages (G0) of the cell cycle. Cells in G0 stage remain metabolically active but no longer proliferate unless called on to do so depending on the requirement of the organism.
Detailed explanation-2: -G0 phase: The G0 phase is a resting phase where the cell has left the cycle and has stopped dividing.
Detailed explanation-3: -Cells usually exit the cell cycle in order to differentiate into the distinct cell types of an organism, such as neurons, muscle or fat (Sun and Buttitta, 2017).
Detailed explanation-4: -The cells which do not divide by mitosis are differentiated cells and sex cells. These differentiated cells embody neurons, muscle cells, skin cells, and most blood cells, B-cells, T-cells, and red blood cells.
Detailed explanation-5: -Neurons cannot divide because they lack centrioles. Each nerve cell has a specific place in our nervous system.
