What would occur in a cell if the production of cyclins halted during the cell cycle? A) the cell would continue to divide indefinitely B) organelles would not be duplicated in G ₁ C) the cell would not complete cytokinesis D) the cell would enter the G ₀ phase E) the cell would remain in the G ₂ phase and would not enter into mitosis

Question
