Match Column-A with Column-B

i-b, ii-a, iii-c, iv-d

The correct answer is Option (1) – i-b, ii-a, iii-c, iv-d

Match between Column-A and Column-B:

i. G1 b. First gap phase, the cell grows physically larger

ii. S a. Cell synthesis a complete copy of the DNA

iii. G2 c. Cell begins to reorganise its contents in preparation for mitosis

iv. M d. Cell divides its copied DNA

Explanation:

• G1 (Gap 1 phase): This is the first gap phase where the cell grows physically larger, synthesizes proteins, and prepares for DNA replication.
• S (Synthesis phase): In this phase, DNA replication occurs, resulting in the synthesis of a complete copy of the DNA.
• G2 (Gap 2 phase): During this phase, the cell continues to grow and prepares for cell division by reorganizing its contents and checking for DNA errors.
• M (Mitotic phase): This is the phase where cell division occurs, resulting in two daughter cells, each with a complete set of chromosomes.
