Match List I with List II :

	List-I (Phase of cell cycle)		List-II (Activity)
A.	G₁$G_1$ phase	I.	Actual cell division occurs
B.	S phase	II.	Cell is metabolically active and continuously grows but does not replicate its DNA
C.	G₂$G_2$ phase	III.	Synthesis of DNA occurs and the amount of DNA per cell doubles
D.	M phase	IV.	Proteins are synthesized while cell growth continues

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

Related Formula

G₁$G_1$: Metabolically active growth S: DNA replication (2C arrow 4C$2C \rightarrow 4C$) G₂$G_2$: Protein synthesis M: Actual division

Core Logic

• G₁$G_1$ phase: Cell is metabolically active and continuously grows without DNA replication arrow$\rightarrow$ II
• S phase: DNA synthesis occurs and DNA doubles arrow$\rightarrow$ III
• G₂$G_2$ phase: Protein synthesis occurs in preparation for mitosis arrow$\rightarrow$ IV
• M phase: Actual cell division occurs arrow$\rightarrow$ I

Step 1: Match Verification

Matching pairs: A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I. This matches Option (1).

Pattern Recognition

S-phase = DNA synthesis/doubling. M-phase = Actual division. Instant match elimination gives option 1.
