Question

Match List I with List II :

List - I		List – II
A.	Cells are metabolically active and proliferate	i.	\(G_2 phase\)
B.	DNA replication takes place	ii.	\(G_1 phase\)
C.	Proteins are synthesised	iii.	\(G_0 phase\)
D.	Quiescent stage with metabolically active cells	iv.	S phase

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

• A. A-IV, B-II, C-III, D-I
• B. А-І, В-III, C-IV, D-II
• C. Α-I, В-I, C-III, D-IV
• D. A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

A. Cells are metabolically active and proliferate: This occurs during the G₁ phase of the cell cycle, where the cell grows and prepares for DNA replication. A-II

B. DNA replication takes place: This occurs during the S phase (synthesis phase). B-IV

C. Proteins are synthesized: Protein synthesis occurs throughout the cell cycle but is particularly active during the G₁ and G₂ phases. C-I, and since G₁ has already been assigned then it should be G₂ making it C-I

D. Cells at the non-dividing stage with metabolically active cells: This describes the G₀ phase, a non-proliferating stage where cells remain metabolically active but do not proliferate. D-II
