yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

a. Cells grow and develop during interphase. Cells reproduce during the mitotic phase.

Explanation:

Cell cycle refers to the series of processes that leads to the growth/development and division of a cell. The cell cycle uses MITOSIS for cell growth. Mitosis comprises of two distinct stages namely: INTERPHASE AND MITOTIC PHASE. The interphase is referred to as the resting phase of the cell in which the cell grows and develops.

On the other hand, MITOTIC PHASE is the stage where the actual division of the nucleus (karyokinesis) and cytoplasm (cytokinesis) generally called CELL DIVISION occurs. Therefore, the cell reproduces i.e. one cell forming two, in the mitotic phase.
