During a lab experiment, Rahul looks at six unlabeled slides showing different stages of the cell cycle. The teacher asks Rahul to place the slides in order, starting with Interphase. In what order should Rahul place the slides?
Interphase --> prophase --> anaphase --> metaphase --> telophase --> cytokinesis
Interphase --> cytokinesis --> anaphase --> metaphase --> prophase --> telophase
Interphase --> telophase --> anaphase --> metaphase --> prophase --> cytokinesis
Interphase --> prophase --> metaphase --> anaphase --> telophase --> cytokinesis
