Consider the following four statements (I–IV) related to cell cycle, and select the correct option stating them as true [T] and false [F]. i. G 1 phase is a metabolically active stage of the cell cycle. ii. Interphase is the phase of actual cell division. iii. The number of chromosomes doubles in S-phase. iv. The cells that do not divide further exit the G 1 - phase to enter a quiescent stage.
Options
- AI II III IV T F F F
- BI II III IV F T T T
- CI II III IV F F T T
- DI II III IV T F F T
Correct answer
D. I II III IV T F F T
Step-by-step solution
Interphase is the preparatory phase where the cell prepares itself for cell division by increasing the concentration of proteins. Replication of chromosomes takes place in the S phase where the number of chromatids double.
