Question

A cell that is not actively dividing is in what phase of the cell cycle?
A)G1
B)G0
C)G1'
D)G2

Accepted Answer

In the cell cycle, the phases are G1, S, G2, and M. A cell that is not actively dividing is in the G0 phase, which is not listed as an option. However, option B includes G1 and G0, indicating that the cell is in the G1 phase but not actively preparing for division. Therefore, option B is the best choice.
