A body cell has been growing and synthesizing proteins. In the nucleus of this body cell, DNA replication is taking place, and a copy of the cell’s genetic material is copied. Which of the following is the best conclusion you can make about the life cycle of this cell?

A.The cell is in the G2 phase of interphase and is ready to begin dividing.
b.The cell is in the S phase of interphase and will move next to the G2 phase.
C.The cell is ready to undergo mitosis, and a chemical signal will send the cell to prophase.
D.The cell is undergoing meiosis and will cross over the genetic material next.
