Cell Cycle And Cell Division Question 1
Question: Match List I with List II:
| List I | List II |
|---|---|
| A. M Phase | I. Proteins are synthesized |
| B. G₂ Phase | II. Inactive phase |
| C. Quiescent stage | III. Interval between mitosis and initiation of DNA replication |
| D. G₁ Phase | IV. Equational division |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
(1) A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
(2) A-III, B-II, C-IV, D-I
(3) A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III
(4) A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
Show Answer
Answer: (4) A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
Explaination-
G1, S and G2 phases are the sub-phases of interphase of the cell cycle
G1 (gap 1) phase- first phase of interphase, interval between mitosis and cell division, cell remains metabolically active
S (synthesis) phase- cell makes an extra copy of DNA by replication
G2 (Gap 2) phase- proteins are synthesised in preparation for mitosis
Quiescent stage (G0 phase)- cell remain metabolically active do not proliferate unless called on to do so depending on the requirement of the organism
