Understand the cell cycle: The cell cycle is a series of phases that cells go through as they grow and divide. It consists of interphase (G1, S, G2) and the mitotic phase (M).
Identify the phases: G1 (Gap 1) is the first phase where the cell grows and prepares for DNA replication. S (Synthesis) is the phase where DNA replication occurs. G2 (Gap 2) is the phase where the cell prepares for mitosis. M (Mitosis) is the phase where cell division occurs.
Determine the correct sequence: The cell cycle begins with G1, followed by S, then G2, and finally M. This sequence ensures that the cell is properly prepared for division.
Compare the options: Review each option provided and compare it to the correct sequence of G1, S, G2, M.
Select the correct answer: Choose the option that matches the correct sequence of the cell cycle phases, which is G1, S, G2, M.
