which of the following is the correct sequence for the cell cycle?

a) s-m-g₁-g₂
b) s-m-g₂-g₁
c) s-g₁-g₁-m
d) g₁-s-g₂-m
e) s-g₁-m-g₂

Explanation:

The cell cycle consists of four main stages. The \(G_1\) (Gap 1) phase is when the cell grows and prepares for DNA synthesis. Then comes the \(S\) (Synthesis) phase where DNA replication occurs. After that is the \(G_2\) (Gap 2) phase for further growth and preparation for mitosis. Finally, the \(M\) (Mitosis) phase is when cell division takes place. So the correct order is \(G_1 - S - G_2 - M\).

Answer:

D. \(G_1 - S - G_2 - M\)
