The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
The phase in which cells fail to divide further (do not undergo S-phase after G1- phase) is known as G0 phase or quiescent stage. It occurs due to non-availability of mitogen and energy rich compounds. The cells remains metabolically active but no longer proliferate unless called on to do so depending on the requirement of the organisms.
