The cell cycle is highly regulated and involves many steps to ensure that a cell is ready to divide. For this reason, cells
cycle between interphase and mitosis.
Which of the following describes the consequence of a severe disruption of interphase in cells in healthy tissue?
O Disruption of interphase will have no effect on mitosis because they are two completely independent processes.
O Disruption of interphase will lead to a faster and more efficient mitotic cycle, which will result in increased cell division
and tissue growth.
O Disruption of interphase will trigger the cell to switch to a mitotic phase and repeatedly divide, which will result in the
massive proliferation of the cells and heightened tissue growth.
O Disruption of interphase will result in the cell being unable to synthesize proteins and organelles required to divide,
which will result in the cell not passing key checkpoints and ceasing to divide.
