Answer: Option D
Solution (By Examveda Team)
The The M phase is the shortest phase during the cell cycle.M phase is the period of actual nuclear and cell division during which the duplicated chromosomes are divided equally between two progeny cells.
Cell division occurs during M phase, which consists of nuclear division (mitosis) followed by cytoplasmic division (cytokinesis). It includes several stages: prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. Cytokinesis is another process that runs during telophase and it leads to the splitting of the cytoplasm.
