Cell Cycle

What is the purpose of the G2 phase of interphase?

• To make a copy of DNA

• To carry out cell growth and function

• To undergo further preparations for cell division

• To divide the cytoplasm

What are the two events that occur during the M phase?

• Mitosis and cytokinesis

• DNA replication and cell growth

• Nuclear division and cytoplasm division

• Cell growth and function
