Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the cell cycle: The cell cycle is a series of phases that a cell goes through to divide and produce new cells. It consists of interphase (G1, S, G2) and the M phase (mitosis and cytokinesis).
Identify the phases of interphase: Interphase is divided into three stages: G1 (Gap 1), S (Synthesis), and G2 (Gap 2).
Recognize the role of each phase: During G1, the cell grows and carries out normal functions. In the S phase, DNA replication occurs, and in G2, the cell prepares for mitosis.
Determine the sequence of phases: The sequence of interphase is G1, followed by S, and then G2.
Conclude the correct phase: The phase that follows G1 and precedes G2 is the S phase, where DNA synthesis occurs.
