NEET · Biology · STD 11 - 10. Cell cycle and cell division
Given below are two statements:
Statement \(I\) : During G0 phase of cell cycle, the cell is metabolically inactive.
Statement \(II\) : The centrosome undergoes duplication during S phase of interphase.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
- A Statement \(I\) is incorrect but Statement \(II\) is correct.
- B Both Statement \(I\) and Statement \(II\) are correct
- C Both Statement \(I\) and Statement \(II\) are incorrect.
- D Statement \(I\) is correct but Statement \(II\) is incorrect.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) Statement \(I\) is incorrect but Statement \(II\) is correct.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Statement I is incorrect because during the G0 phase, the cell is metabolically active but does not divide.
Statement II is correct because the centrosome duplicates during the S phase of interphase.
Statement II is correct because the centrosome duplicates during the S phase of interphase.
