Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle that includes which of the following stages ____
A
Growth 1, anaphase, and synthesis
B
Growth 1, synthesis, and growth 2
C
Growth 1, cytokinesis, and mitosis
D
Growth 1, synthesis, and mitosis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Interphase is composed of G1 phase (cell growth), followed by S phase (DNA synthesis), followed by G2 phase (cell growth).

Detailed explanation-2: -The completion of DNA synthesis is followed by the G2 phase (gap 2), during which cell growth continues and proteins are synthesized in preparation for mitosis.

Detailed explanation-3: -The cell cycle is a four-stage process in which the cell increases in size (gap 1, or G1, stage), copies its DNA (synthesis, or S, stage), prepares to divide (gap 2, or G2, stage), and divides (mitosis, or M, stage). The stages G1, S, and G2 make up interphase, which accounts for the span between cell divisions.
