5
C
4
D
3
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The cell cycle is composed of the interphase, mitotic phase, and G0 phase.

Detailed explanation-2: -The cell cycle of a eukaryotic cell has three stages: interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis.

Detailed explanation-3: -The cell cycle has two major phases: interphase and the mitotic phase (Figure 1). During interphase, the cell grows and DNA is replicated. During the mitotic phase, the replicated DNA and cytoplasmic contents are separated, and the cell divides.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.
