Shortly following DNA replication is a brief A) G₃ phase. B) anaphase. C) G₂ phase. D) synthesis phase. E) G₁ phase.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The DNA replication process involves several distinct phases, including the G1 phase, S phase, and G2 phase. Following S phase, the cell enters into a brief G2 phase (G₂ phase) before entering into mitosis (M phase). During G2 phase, the cell undergoes a series of preparations for cell division, including protein synthesis, chromosome condensation, and assembly of the mitotic spindle. Therefore, choice C is the best answer.
