Can you identify what happens during each phase of the cell cycle?

Each phase of the cell cycle involves a particular action or set of actions on the cell's part. Use these questions to make sure you know the most important details about each phase.

Correct! Interphase is the collective term for the three beginning phases of the cell cycle.
Sorry, but that is not correct. Interphase is the collective term for the three beginning phases of the cell cycle.
describes the combination of the G1, S, and G2 phases.
