The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the interphase events (G1, S, G2) that occur before the commencement of mitosis, meiosis-I, meiosis-II, and binary fission of bacteria, we can analyze each option step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Interphase**: - Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle where the cell prepares for division. It consists of three stages: G1 (Gap 1), S (Synthesis), and G2 (Gap 2). - During G1, the cell grows and synthesizes proteins necessary for DNA replication. - The S phase is where DNA replication occurs, resulting in two copies of each chromosome. - In G2, the cell continues to grow and prepares for mitosis by synthesizing proteins and organelles. 2. **Analyzing Mitosis**: - Mitosis is the process of cell division that follows interphase. Therefore, the events of G1, S, and G2 must occur before mitosis can begin. - **Conclusion**: Interphase occurs before mitosis. 3. **Analyzing Meiosis-I**: - Meiosis-I is the first division in meiosis and also requires the cell to go through interphase (G1, S, G2) to prepare for the division. - **Conclusion**: Interphase occurs before meiosis-I. 4. **Analyzing Meiosis-II**: - Meiosis-II follows meiosis-I and does not require a complete interphase. After meiosis-I, there is a short phase called interkinesis, but no DNA replication occurs during this phase. - **Conclusion**: Interphase does not occur before meiosis-II. 5. **Analyzing Binary Fission of Bacteria**: - Binary fission is a form of asexual reproduction in bacteria. Bacteria do not have a defined interphase like eukaryotic cells; they replicate their DNA and divide without the stages of G1, S, and G2. - **Conclusion**: Interphase does not occur before binary fission. ### Final Answer: The definite events of G1, S, and G2 stages occur before the commencement of: - I. Mitosis (Yes) - II. Meiosis-I (Yes) - III. Meiosis-II (No) - IV. Binary fission of bacteria (No) Thus, the correct options are **I and II**.
