Which of the following statements is incorrect about G_0 phase?
Which of the following statements is incorrect about phase?
Options
- AMitosis occurs after phase.
- BCell enters phase due to non-availability of mitogens.
- CCell volume keeps on increasing during this phase.
- DCell metabolism occurs continuously in phase.
Correct answer
A. Mitosis occurs after phase.
Step-by-step solution
phase is the stage of inactivation of cell cycle due to non-availability of mitogens and energy rich compounds. The cells in this phase remain metabolically active and usually grow in size assuming particular shape (cell differentiation). Cell enters phase from a cell cycle checkpoint in the phase. phase checkpoint takes the key decision whether the cell should divide, delay division or enter resting stage. Cells then remain in phase until there is a reason for them to divide.
