Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
G1 phase, S phase, and G2 phaseare all parts of ____
A
prophase
B
telophase
C
interpahse
D
anaphase
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Interphase is composed of G1 phase (cell growth), followed by S phase (DNA synthesis), followed by G2 phase (cell growth). At the end of interphase comes the mitotic phase, which is made up of mitosis and cytokinesis and leads to the formation of two daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Interphase. G1, S and G2 phases are all cumulatively referred to as interphase involving the growth of a cell and the replication of its DNA.

Detailed explanation-3: -Interphase is the portion of the cell cycle that is not accompanied by visible changes under the microscope, and includes the G1, S and G2 phases. During interphase, the cell grows (G1), replicates its DNA (S) and prepares for mitosis (G2). A cell in interphase is not simply quiescent.

Detailed explanation-4: -Interphase is defined by three stages: the first gap phase (G1), the synthesis (S) phase, and the second gap (G2) phase.

Detailed explanation-5: -Prophase which is the first stage of mitosis follows the S and G2 phases of interphase.
