NEET 2026, Biology Q11: Cell Cycle and Cell Division
NEET2026Biology
Q.
Match List I with List II :
| List-I (Phase of cell cycle) | List-II (Activity) | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| A. | G phase | I. | Actual cell division occurs |
| B. | S phase | II. | Cell is metabolically active and continuously grows but does not replicate its DNA |
| C. | G Phase | III. | Synthesis of DNA occurs and the amount of DNA per cell doubles |
| D. | M phase | IV. | Proteins are synthesized while cell growth continues |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
- A
A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
- B
A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
- C
A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
- D
A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
Solution
G phase → Cell is metabolically active and continuously grows without replicating its DNA.
S phase → DNA replication occurs and the DNA content per cell doubles.
G phase → Proteins are synthesised in preparation for mitosis while growth continues.
M phase → Actual cell division takes place.
