Question

Name and explain the various stages of the cell cycle.

Answer 1

Answer:

• Interphase : The cell copies its DNA in preparation for mitosis. This phase is divided into 3 shorter phases : G1, S and G2.

• Prophase : The chromosomes start to condense and the nucleolus disappears. The nuclear envelope breaks down.

• Metaphase : Chromosomes align at the metaphase plate which is the centre of the cell.

• Anaphase : Chromatids of each chromosome are separated and start migrating towards opposite poles of the cell.

• Telophase : Nuclear membranes reappears, one for each set of chromosomes. Chromosomes decondense.

Answer 2

Answer:The stages of the cell cycle in order are interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. ... Interphase:It is the resting stage of a cell. The replication of DNA occurs during the S phase of this stage. Prophase:It is the stage where the chromosomes become visible and the nuclear membrane dissolves.
