Question

in which part of interphase does the following occur: the cell prepares for cell division with the appearance of centrioles and chromosomes.

g1

s

g2

mitosis

Explanation:

• In the cell cycle, interphase has three stages: G1 (growth), S (DNA replication), and G2.
• Mitosis is not part of interphase.
• The G2 phase is when the cell prepares for cell division. Centrioles replicate (in animal cells) and the cell gets ready for the events of mitosis. Chromosomes (already replicated in S phase) start to condense and organize further in preparation for division.

Answer:

G2
