Question

multiple select question
select all that apply
select events that occur in a cell during interphase.

• cells in interphase divide into two cells.
• cells in interphase replicate dna.
• cells in interphase carry out normal cell functions.
• cells in interphase form nuclei around chromosomes.

Explanation:

1. Analyze each option:

• "Cells in interphase divide into two cells": Cell division (cytokinesis) occurs after mitosis, not during interphase. So this is incorrect.
• "Cells in interphase replicate DNA": DNA replication happens during the S - phase of interphase. This is correct.
• "Cells in interphase carry out normal cell functions": Interphase is the period when the cell grows and performs its normal metabolic functions. This is correct.
• "Cells in interphase form nuclei around chromosomes": Formation of nuclei around chromosomes (telophase of mitosis) occurs after interphase. So this is incorrect.

Answer:

B. Cells in interphase replicate DNA, C. Cells in interphase carry out normal cell functions
