A-4, B-1, C-2, D-3

A-1, B-2, C-3, D-4

A-4, B-3, C-2, D-1

A-3, B-1, C-4, D-2

Step-by-Step Solution

Correct Option: A) A-4, B-1, C-2, D-3

A-4 (G1 Phase): This is the interval between mitosis and the initiation of DNA replication. The cell is metabolically active and grows but does not replicate its DNA.
B-1 (S Phase): This is the Synthesis phase where DNA replication takes place. The amount of DNA doubles, and in animal cells, the centriole duplicates.
C-2 (G2 Phase): During this gap phase, specific proteins are synthesized in preparation for mitosis while cell growth continues.
D-3 (G0 Phase): Also known as the Quiescent Stage. Cells that exit the G1 phase enter this inactive stage where they remain metabolically active but do not divide
