Assertion: G(1) phase is the interval be...

Assertion: `G_(1)` phase is the interval between mitosis and initiation of DNA replication.
Reason: The cell is metabolically inactive during `G_(1)` phase.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explantion of assertion

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explnantion of assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`G_(1)` phase is also known as first growth phase or post mitotic gap phase. It is the phase between end of mitotic phase of previous cell and initiation of S-phase of next mitotic phase. During `G_(1)` phase the cell is metabolically active and continously grows. In this phase different types of RNA (mRNA,fRNA and rRNA) and proteins are synthesised.
