Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The G0 phase is the phase in the cell cycle in which the cell is neither dividing nor preparing for division; hence it’s in a resting phase. The cell enters this phase after it is done dividing or duplicating (mitosis).
Detailed explanation-2: -While some cells are constantly dividing, others are quiescent. These cells exit G1 and enter a resting state called G0. In G0, a cell is performing its function without actively preparing to divide. G0 is a permanent state for some cells, while others may re-start division if they get the right signals.
