Answer 1

The correct order of events in the cell cycle is:1. **vi. Resting, DNA replication, and protein-building between mitotic divisions (Interphase):** This phase encompasses the G1, S, and G2 phases of the cell cycle. G1 is a period of cell growth and preparation for DNA replication. The S phase is when DNA replication occurs, creating identical sister chromatids. G2 is another growth phase where the cell prepares for mitosis.2. **iii. Chromosomes condense from the chromatin of the nucleus (Prophase):** The diffuse chromatin fibers condense into visible chromosomes.3. **iv. Chromosomes are aligned along the equator of the mitotic spindle (Metaphase):** The chromosomes, each consisting of two sister chromatids, line up along the metaphase plate.4. **ii. Daughter chromatids move toward the spindle poles (Anaphase):** The sister chromatids separate and are pulled to opposite poles of the cell by the spindle fibers.5. **i. Cytokinesis occurs resulting in new daughter cells (Telophase/Cytokinesis):** The chromosomes decondense, and new nuclear envelopes form around the separated chromosomes. Cytokinesis divides the cytoplasm, creating two separate daughter cells.6. **v. Chromosomes of daughter cells are grouped in a new nucleus (Telophase):** This occurs concurrently with the beginning of cytokinesis. As the cytoplasm divides, the chromosomes are already enclosed within the newly formed nuclei of the daughter cells.Therefore, the correct sequence is **vi, iii, iv, ii, v, i**.
