Cell Cycle — Quiz

Question 9 • Biology

At which point in the eukaryotic cell cycle does mitosis occur?

Answer
A
before the G1 phase
B
following the S phase
C
after the G2 phase
D
after the G0 phase

Explanation

The cell cycle proceeds through interphase—G1, S, and G2—before entering mitosis. Therefore, mitosis occurs after the G2 phase. The S phase is when DNA is copied, so mitosis does not immediately follow it; the cell first passes through G2.
