Which is NOT true of the phases of the cell cycle?
|
|
During G1 phase, the organelles double.
|
|
|
During G2 phase, growth occurs.
|
|
|
During S phase, the DNA is replicated
|
|
|
During M phase, mitosis occurs.
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -<br> a. During ‘G (1)‘ phase there is active synthesis of RNA and proteins but no change in its DNA content <br> b. In synthesis or S phases, each chromosome carriers a duplicate set of genes <br> c.
Detailed explanation-2: -DNA replication takes place in S phase.
Detailed explanation-3: -The first growth phase (G1): During the G1 stage, the cell doubles in size and doubles the number of organelles. The synthesis phase (S): The DNA is replicated during this phase. In other words, an identical copy of all the cell’s DNA is made.
Detailed explanation-4: -Final answer: Cell is metabolically active, grows but does not replicate its DNA is the correct statement.
