The first checkpoint in the cell cycle is the G1/S checkpoint, where the cell decides whether to continue with the cell cycle or exit into a non-dividing state called G0. If the cell doesn't pass this checkpoint, it will exit the cycle and enter G0. The answer choice B includes the G1/S checkpoint (GS) and if it is not passed (1U1B11), the cell will exit the cycle (S1U1B0). None of the other answer choices include the G1/S checkpoint.
