Question

A body cell is in the longest stage of its life cycle. The cell grows, synthesizing protiens and increasing in size. Eventually the cell will grow too large to carry normal activities and begin mitosis. Which phase is the cell in?
Possible Answers :
-G2
-G1
-Cytokinesis
-S

Answer 1

This will be the G2 phase.

Answer 2

in a normal condition, G1 is the phase that acts as the point (think of it more like where the "green or red lights" are; green for go, red for stop) when a cell should further undergo another cycle
