Question
which of the following does not occur during the g - phase of the cell cycle?
cell division
synthesis of enzymes and other proteins
breakdown of sugars
growth
During the G - phase (G1 or G2), the cell grows (G1: cell grows in size, G2: cell grows further and prepares for mitosis). In G1, there is synthesis of enzymes and other proteins needed for DNA replication (in S - phase). Also, breakdown of sugars (metabolism) occurs to provide energy for cell activities. Cell division (mitosis or cytokinesis) occurs in the M - phase, not in the G - phase.
