Which following pair is correctly matched? A) G₁ phase - DNA replication B) G₂ phase - preparation for meiosis C) S phase - DNA replication D) M phase - cell growth E) G₀ phases - cell growth

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The S phase, also known as the synthesis phase, is the part of the cell cycle where DNA is replicated. Thus, option C is correctly matched. None of the other options are correctly matched. Option A appears to be a made-up acronym, and there is no known phase called the G₁ phase. Option B is also incorrect as meiosis is a specialized type of cell division that involves multiple phases, and there is no specific phase known as the G₂ phase. Option D is incorrect, as the M phase, or mitosis, is the part of the cell cycle where the cell divides, and it does not involve cell growth. Option E is also incorrect, as G₀ phases is not a known term used to describe any part of the cell cycle.
