Question

Please actually try when you answer. If you don't know the answer, don't answer and say that, I don't give a flip if you don't know the answer. How does a cell at the end of the first phase of the cell cycle differ from a cell at the end of the second phase?

Answer 1

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Knowing that the cell cycle has two phases

• the first phase which is the interphase; and
• the second phase, the m phase

A cell at the end of interphase would have grown in volume and have a doubled amount of DNA compared to the same cell at the end of m phase. Such a cell would also have more biochemical contents than its counterpart at the end of m phase.

The interphase is divided into;

• G1 phase,
• S phase; and
• G2 phase

A cell at the end of m phase undergoes massive growth and development at the G1 phase, doubles its DNA at the S phase through replication, and synthesizes proteins at the G2 phase before hopping into the m phase again.
