(1) Cells B and C                               

(2) No two cells

(3) Cells D and E, cells F and G         

(4) Cells D, and F, Cell E and G

The DNA content of individual cells and the number of cells in each phase of a "cell cycle" can be determined, using flow cytometry. Which of the following combinations of "phase of a cell cycle and its corresponding DNA content" can be considered normal?
A. Diploid cells found in the Go or G1 phase.
B. Cells with twice the normal DNA content in the early M phase.
C. Cells with intermediate amounts of DNA in the S Phase.
D. Cells with twice the normal DNA content in the G2 phase.
(1) A and B               

(2) B and C             

(3) C and D             

(4) All are correct

(1) 21 minutes     

(2) 23 minutes     

(3) 60 minutes     

(4) 160 minutes

The following diagram refers to a typical cell cycle.

Identify the parts marked as X, Y and Z.

1. X - G₁; Y - S; Z - G₂                      2. X - G₂; Y - S; Z - G₁

3. X - G₀; Y - S; Z - G₂                     4. X - G₁; Y - G₂; Z - G₀

Identify the meiotic stage in which the homologous chromosomes separate while the sister chromatids remain associated at their centromeres:

(1) Metaphase I    

(2) Metaphase II  

(3) Anaphase I     

(4) Anaphase II

At which stage of meiosis does the genetic constitution of gametes is finally decided:

(1) Metaphase I    

(2) Anaphase II    

(3) Metaphase II   

(4) Anaphase I

Select the correct statement about G₁ phase:

(1) Cell is metabolically inactive

(2) DNA in the cell does not replicate

(3) It is not a phase of synthesis of macromolecules

(4) Cell stops growing

A. Most dramatic period of cell cycle involving a major reorganization of virtually all components of the cell
B. It represents the phase when the actual cell division occurs
These statements (A & B) are concerned with
1. S-phase
2. G₁ phase
3. M-phase
4. G₂ phase

Select the correct statement

Interkinesis stage of cell cycle
