During which phase of the cell cycle does DNA replication occur, which is a prerequisite for mitosis?
G1 phase
S phase
G2 phase
M phase
Centrioles undergo duplication during (i) of (ii), and begin to move towards opposite poles of the cell during (iii) stage of (iv)
i-S phase, ii-inter phase, iii- Prophase, iv-Mitosis
i-S phase, ii-Inter phase, iii-Anaphase, iv- Mitosis
i-Prophase, ii-Mitosis, iii-Metaphase, iv- Mitosis
i-Prophase, ii-Mitosis, iii-Anaphase, iv-Mitosis
If a cell has a twice as much DNA as in a normal functional cell it means that the cell
Is preparing to divide
Has completed division
Has reached the end of its life span
Has ceased to function
