Which of the following describes cell activity during the G1 phase of the cell cycle?
A
the cell undergoes mitosis
B
the cell increases in size and produces new organelles
C
DNA is replicated
D
the cell is in a resting place
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Which of the following describes cell activity during the G1 phase of the cell cycle? Explanation: During G1, the cell undergoes growth as it increases in size and produces organelles. This is followed by DNA replication is S phase, further growth in G2, and mitosis in M phase.

Detailed explanation-2: -A cell grows during the G1 phase of the cell cycle. During this phase, more organelles are produced, a high amount of protein synthesis occurs and the volume of the cytoplasm increases. The cell continues to grow further in the G2 phase.

Detailed explanation-3: -G1 phase. G1 is an intermediate phase occupying the time between the end of cell division in mitosis and the beginning of DNA replication during S phase. During this time, the cell grows in preparation for DNA replication, and certain intracellular components, such as the centrosomes undergo replication.
