Question

_____ phase is the period during the life of a cell when it has finished mitotic division.

G0 phase
G1 phase
G2 phase
S phase

Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer would be G₀ phase.

Every cell of the body undergoes cell division to form new cells of the body. G₀ phase can also be called as the quiescent phase or resting phase which is completely devoid of cell division or preparation for cell division.

This phase of the cell cycle can also be called as post mitotic stage after which the cell has stopped the mitotic division. The metabolic activities of the cell remains active inside the cell and from outside it seems to be resting.

Answer 2

The correct answer would be G₀ phase.

G₀ or resting phase or quiescent phase is a phase in which cell exists a cell cycle.

It is the phase in which a cell is neither dividing nor preparing for the cell division.

The cell after completing the M phase or mitotic division enters the G₀ phases if it is not going for another round of cell division.

A cell matures, differentiate and remains metabolically active in G₀ phase.
