Value Based Questions :
Which of the following statements is associated with A. prophase, B. meraphase, C. anaphasc, D. telophase, and E. interphase of mitosis?
Nucleus is active but chromosomes are not distinct.

Answer 1

The interphase of the cell cycle is characterised by the active growth and metabolism of both the cell and the nucleus.

The chromosomes are present in a thread like an arrangement called the chromatin.

So, the nucleus is active but the chromosomes are not distinctly seen as the thread like arrangement is in the loose stage and is not condensed.

So, the correct option is 'Interphase of mitosis'.
