Q.

Given below are two statements:

Statement I: During G phase of cell cycle, the cell is metabolically inactive.

Statement II: The centrosome undergoes duplication during S phase of interphase.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

  1. A

    Both Statement I and Statement II are correct

  2. B

    Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.

  3. C

    Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.

  4. D

    Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct.

Solution

G cells remain metabolically active; they just stop dividing. Statement I is therefore wrong. The centrosome does duplicate during the S phase along with nuclear DNA, so Statement II is correct.
