NEET · Biology · STD 11 - 10. Cell cycle and cell division

Match List I with List II :
List I (Phase of cell cycle)List II (Activity)
A. \(G_1\) phaseI. Actual cell division occurs
B. S phaseII. Cell is metabolically active and continuously grows but does not replicate its DNA
C. \(G_2\) phaseIII. Synthesis of DNA occurs and the amount of DNA per cell doubles
D. M phaseIV. Proteins are synthesized while cell growth continues

  1. A A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
  2. B A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
  3. C A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
  4. D A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(D) A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
In the \(G_1\) phase, the cell is metabolically active and continuously grows but does not replicate its DNA.
In the S phase (synthesis phase), DNA replication takes place and the amount of DNA per cell doubles.
In the \(G_2\) phase, proteins are synthesized in preparation for mitosis while cell growth continues.
In the M phase, actual cell division or mitosis occurs.
Therefore, the correct matching is A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I.
