Given are two statements:Statement I: During G_{0} phase of cell cycle, the cell is metabolically inactive.Statement II: The centrosome undergoes duplication during S phase of interphase.In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer:

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

1. Statement I is incorrect: Cells in the G_{0} (quiescent) stage exit the cell cycle and stop dividing, but they remain metabolically active.2. Statement II is true: While DNA replicates in the nucleus during the S phase, the centrosome duplicates in the cytoplasm.

Try it yourself before checking the explanation above.
