Detailed explanation-1: -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).
Detailed explanation-2: -Initially in G1 phase, the cell grows physically and increases the volume of both protein and organelles. In S phase, the cell copies its DNA to produce two sister chromatids and replicates its nucleosomes. Finally, G2 phase involves further cell growth and organisation of cellular contents.
Detailed explanation-3: -G1 is followed by S phase (synthesis), during which DNA replication takes place. 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-4: -G1 phase (Gap 1)-Cellular contents excluding the chromosomes, are duplicated. II. S phase (DNA Synthesis)-Each of the 46 chromosomes are duplicated by the cell. III. G2 phase (Gap 2)-The Cell “double checks” the duplicated chromosomes for error, making any needed repair.
