 ABCD
(a)$G_{2}$$G_{1}$SM
(b)$G_{2}$S$G_{1}$M
(c)$G_{1}$S$G_{2}$M
(d)M$G_{1}$S$G_{2}$

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)

Explanation:

Answer: (c)

The given figure shows (I - phase). Interphase (called resting phase) is the time during which cell is preparing for division by undergoing both cell growth and DNA replication in a systemic manner. According to the given figure, the phases marked as A, B, C and D are respectively $G_{1} , S, G_{2}$ and M phase.

$G_{1}$ phase: It is also called antephase as during the phase the cell stores ATP for cell division. In this phase, synthesis of protein, RNA, amino acids, ATP and nucleotides occur. S phase: It is also called invisible stage of M phase. In this stage, synthesis of DNA and histone proteins occurs.

$G_{2}$ Phase: In this phase, synthesis of RNA and proteins continues and formation of macromolecules for spindle and organelle formation occurs. In this the quantity of DNA within the cells has increased to 4C but the cell is still considered diploid.

M phase: In M phase, mitosis occurs when the nucleus of the cell divides into two identical nuclei with the same number and type of chromosomes, followed by cytokinesis when the cytoplasm, for both plant and animal cells, divides, thus creating two daughter cells that are genetically equal and approximately identical in size.


Question-3

Which of the following is the most significant difference between mitosis and meiosis?

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)

Explanation:

Answer: (c)

In mitosis, each daughter cell ends up with two of each chromosome.


Question-4

How many chromosome shall be present in a diploid cell at mitotic anaphase if its egg cell has ten chromosome ?

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)


Question-5

Meiosis occurs in organisms during

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)
