Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The set of symbols D represents the stages of interphase, which are S (synthesis), G₁ (gap 1) and G₂ (gap 2). During S phase, DNA replication occurs, while G₁ and G₂ phases are characterized by cellular growth and preparation for cell division, respectively. Choice A is incorrect because G₀ is not a stage of interphase, but a stage in the cell cycle in which cells are not actively dividing. Choice B is incorrect because S₁ and S₂ are not stages of interphase, they do not exist. Choice C is incorrect because S is only one of the three stages of interphase, and G₀ and G₁ are missing.
