Verified step by step guidance

Understand the cell cycle phases: The cell cycle consists of interphase (G1, S, G2) and mitotic phase (M). Each phase has specific functions and checkpoints.

Identify the checkpoints: Checkpoints are control mechanisms that ensure the cell is ready to proceed to the next phase. They are crucial for maintaining the integrity of the cell's genetic material.

Locate the checkpoints: The main checkpoints are found in G1 (the restriction point), G2 (ensures all DNA is replicated and undamaged), and M (ensures chromosomes are properly aligned for division).

Consider the S phase: Although not traditionally listed as a checkpoint, the S phase is critical for DNA synthesis and has internal checks to ensure replication accuracy.

Conclude the correct answer: Based on the understanding of the cell cycle and checkpoints, the correct answer is that checkpoints are located within G1, M, S, and G2 phases.
