NEET 2020 (Phase 2)

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:
PhaseCharacteristics
G1 phaseThe cell is metabolically most active, cell size increases and organelle duplication takes place in this phase.
S phaseIn this phase, DNA replication, i.e. doubling of DNA content, histone and centriole duplication takes place.
G2 phaseIn this phase, cytoplasmic growth takes place.
Metaphase in M-phaseIn this stage, chromosomes are highly condensed and the alignment of chromosomes takes place at the metaphasic plate.
