In 'S' phase of the cell cycle:
1. amount of DNA doubles in each cell.
2. amount of DNA remains same in each cell.
3. chromosome number is increased
4. amount of DNA is reduced to half in each cell.

A cell at telophase stage is observed by a student in a plant brought from the field. He tells his teacher that this cell is not like other cells at telophase stage. There is no formation of cell plate and thus the cell is containing more number of chromosomes as compared to other dividing cells. This would result in
1. | Polyteny | 2. | Aneuploidy |
3. | Polyploidy | 4. | Somaclonal variation |
During cell growth, DNA synthesis takes place in

3. | G1 phase | 4. | G2 phase |

In oocytes, the diplotene can last for months or years, since at this stage:
1. DNA proof reading and excision repair is performed
2. The proteins for metabolism are re-formed
3. The chromosomes condense and engage in RNA synthesis
4. The cell is temporarily withdrawn from the cell cycle
