Question

Which phase is the major period of cytoplasmic growth?

Answer 1

Cell cycle:

1. The cell cycle describes the phases that a cell goes through as it progresses from one division to the next.
2. The cell cycle is split into two phases:

1. Interphase is a period of cell division preparation.
2. Mitosis is the actual cell division period.

1. ${\mathrm{G}}_1$, $\mathrm{S}$, and ${\mathrm{G}}_2$ are further divisions of interphase.
2. The cell develops and performs typical metabolism during the ${\mathrm{G}}_1$ phase.
3. This period also sees the majority of the organelle duplication.
4. Major Cytoplasmic growth occurs during the ${\mathrm{G}}_1$ phase.
5. The ${\mathrm{G}}_1$ phase is the major period of cytoplasmic growth and covers 30-40% of the cell cycle.
