A
IPMATC
B
MPIATC
C
CAPMIT
D
IMATCP
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Students trying to remember the main stages of the cell cycle often use the following acronym “I-PMAT", with the slightly gross sentence “I peed on the MAT.” This helps them remember interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase in the proper order.

Detailed explanation-2: -In eukaryotes, the cell cycle consists of four discrete phases: G1, S, G2, and M. The S or synthesis phase is when DNA replication occurs, and the M or mitosis phase is when the cell actually divides. The other two phases-G1 and G2, the so-called gap phases-are less dramatic but equally important.

Detailed explanation-3: -IPMATC stands for Interphase Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Cytokinesis (six phases of cell division) Suggest new definition. This definition appears somewhat frequently and is found in the following Acronym Finder categories: Science, medicine, engineering, etc.

Detailed explanation-4: -These phases are prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
