The best answer would be:

A. The stage during which the cell carries out normal cellular functions and makes copies of its DNA.

If you'd like to know more about it, read on:

The cell actually spends most of its life in this phase of the cycle. This is the point where the cell grows and makes copies of its DNA in preparation for cell division.

Interphase is divided into 3 steps:

G1 phase - the cell grows larger and it makes copies of its organelles. (also known as the first gap phase)

S phase - the cell synthesizes copies of its DNA that is found in the nucleus.

G2 phase - it grows more and makes proteins in preparation for cell division. The cell even reorganizes its organelles in this phase.

Answer:

Explanation:

Mitosis is a process in which a cell produces an exact copy of itself. The 2 daughter cells produced from mitosis have the same number of chromatids as the parent cell.

C) one mRNA can sometimes code for more than one protein by splicing at alternative sites = TRUE

E) splicing occurs while the mRNA is still in the nucleus = TRUE

Statements that are false are:

Which geological feature is most common at oceanic-continental convergent boundaries?

alex41 [277]

Trenches are geological feature is most common at oceanic-continental convergent boundaries.

Explanation:

Usually, the oceanic plate, because it is denser, becomes subducted underneath the continental plate. The enormous stress of the two colliding plates causes the plates to warp abit downwards along the boundary causing a trench to form that stretches the boundary.

As the oceanic plate gets subducted and ‘dives’ into the mantle, it begins to melt into magma. Usually, due to the enormous stress along the boundary, fissures develop on teh continental plate along teh boundary. The magma rises through these fissures and erupts at the surface. Several mountains form long the boundary forming another signature geological feature of convergent boundary which is volcanic arc mountains.
