Options

  1. AInterphase is the shortest period of cell cycle
  2. BCell growth, in terms of cytoplasmic increase, is a continuous process
  3. CCycles of growth and division allow a single cell to form a structure consisting of millions of cell
  4. DThe replicated DNA are distributed to daughter nuclei by a complex series of events during cell division.

Correct answer

A. Interphase is the shortest period of cell cycle

Step-by-step solution

Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle in which the cell spends and performs the majority of its time. Then, in preparation for cellular division, it increases in size. Mitosis (nuclear division) is the most dramatic stage of the cell cycle, involving a major reorganisation of virtually all components of the cell. During mitosis (Nuclear Division) the chromosome condense, the nuclear envelope of most cells break down, the cytoskeleton reorganise to form the mitotic spindle and the chromosome move to opposite pol
