CELL DIVISION AND CANCEROUS CELLS

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The cell cycle is a series of stages that allows cells to divide correctly
A
True
B
False
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -During the mitotic (M) phase, the cell divides its copied DNA and cytoplasm to make two new cells. M phase involves two distinct division-related processes: mitosis and cytokinesis.

Detailed explanation-2: -EXPLANATION: The cell cycle is a four-stage process in which the cell increases in size in G1 phase, copies its DNA in S phase, prepares to divide in G2 phase and divides in M phase. The stages G1, S and G2 make up interphase, which accounts for the span between cell divisions.

Detailed explanation-3: -The cell life cycle is a series of changes a cell undergoes from the time it forms until it reproduces itself. This cycle can be divided into two major periods: interphase, in which the cell grows and carries on its usual activities and cell division, or the mitotic phase, during which it divides into two cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: The correct answer choice is d. Interphase consists of the G1, S, and G2 phases.
