Answer:
The correct option is A) The cell carries on metabolism.
Step-by-step explanation:
During the interphase, the cell tends to carry out its normal cell activities and it prepares itself for the cell division process during the interphase. It synthesizes proteins etc which will be required for cell division during this phase. The cell becomes enlarged during this phase. A cell tends to spend most of its time in the interphase. Hence, option A is correct.
Other options, like option C, cannot be considered to be true because the process of cell splitting does not occur during the interphase, It happens during the process of cytokinesis.
