Consider the following four statements (I- IV) related to cell cycle, and select the correct option stating them as true (T) and false (F).
| I. | Cell growth in terms of cytoplasmic increase is a continuous process. |
| II. | Interphase is the phase of actual cell division. |
| III. | The number of chromosomes doubles in S-phase. |
| IV. | The cell that does not divide further exits G1-phase to enter a metabolically inactive stage. |
Options:
I II III IV
| 1. | T F F F |
| 2. | F T T T |
| 3. | F F T T |
