Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct choice is G1 phase, which is represented here as "G₀ phase" due to a formatting error. The G1 phase of the cell cycle has the most variable duration among the phases, as cells can delay in this phase before committing to DNA replication in S phase. This variability allows cells to grow and ensure that all conditions are favorable for DNA synthesis and cell division.
