Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
- This sequence represents the order in which a cell progresses through the different stages of the cell cycle:
- G1 phase (Gap 1): The cell grows and carries out normal functions.
- S phase (Synthesis): DNA is replicated.
- G2 phase (Gap 2): The cell continues to grow and prepares for mitosis.
- M phase (Mitosis): The cell divides its copied DNA and cytoplasm to form two new cells.
