RE-NEET 2026 Botany Cell Cycle MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11
The correct sequence of adult cell cycle phases is _________.
A
G1-M-G2-S
B
G1-S-G2-M
C
S-M-G2-G1
D
G1-G2-S-M
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
The correct sequence of the adult cell cycle phases is G1, S, G2, and M. In the G1 phase, the cell grows and prepares for DNA replication. During the S phase, DNA synthesis occurs, resulting in the duplication of chromosomes. The G2 phase follows, where the cell continues to grow and prepares for mitosis. Finally, in the M phase, the cell divides.
The other options fail because they either misplace the order of these phases or include incorrect transitions, such as G1-M or G1-G2, which do not accurately represent the standard cell cycle progression.
