The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion (A)**: - The assertion states that the regular sequence of the cell cycle is G1, S, G2, M, and C. - The cell cycle consists of several phases: - **G1 phase** (Gap 1): The cell grows and synthesizes proteins necessary for DNA replication. - **S phase** (Synthesis): DNA replication occurs during this phase. - **G2 phase** (Gap 2): The cell continues to grow and prepares for mitosis. - **M phase** (Mitosis): The cell divides. - **C phase** (Cytokinesis): The cytoplasm divides, resulting in two daughter cells. 2. **Understanding the Reason (R)**: - The reason states that replication of DNA occurs during the S phase. - This is a well-established fact in cell biology. During the S phase, each chromosome is replicated to produce two sister chromatids. 3. **Evaluating the Truth of A and R**: - Both statements are true: - The sequence of the cell cycle as stated in the assertion is correct. - The reason correctly identifies that DNA replication occurs during the S phase. 4. **Relationship Between A and R**: - The reason (R) explains the assertion (A). The assertion describes the phases of the cell cycle, and the reason provides a specific detail about one of those phases (S phase) regarding DNA replication. 5. **Conclusion**: - Since both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason explains the assertion, the correct option is that both A and R are true, and R explains A. ### Final Answer: Both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason explains the assertion. ---
