Biology Question on cell cycle and cell division
Match List I with List II :List - I | List – II |
---|---|
A. | Cells are metabolically active and proliferate |
B. | DNA replication takes place |
C. | Proteins are synthesised |
D. | Quiescent stage with metabolically active cells |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below : |
A-IV, B-II, C-III, D-I
А-І, В-III, C-IV, D-II
Α-I, В-I, C-III, D-IV
A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
Solution
A. Cells are metabolically active and proliferate: This occurs during the G 1 phase of the cell cycle, where the cell grows and prepares for DNA replication. A-II
B. DNA replication takes place: This occurs during the S phase (synthesis phase). B-IV
C. Proteins are synthesized: Protein synthesis occurs throughout the cell cycle but is particularly active during the G 1 and G 2 phases. C-I , and since G 1 has already been assigned then it should beG 2 making it C-I
D. Cells at the non-dividing stage with metabolically active cells: This describes the G 0 phase, a non-proliferating stage where cells remain metabolically active but do not proliferate. D-II
