Cell division is preceded by two growth phases. besides growth, both g1 and g2
a. contain checkpoints that determine if the cycle will continue.
b. move chromosomes to the new daughter cells.
c. produce more chromosomes before the cell divides.
d. grow and produce enough cytoplasm to fill two cells.

The answer is a. contain checkpoints that determine if the cycle will continue. Cell cycle checkpoint are important mechanisms that control cell division. There are two checkpoints during the cell cycle: G1 and G2 checkpoint. The G1 checkpoint is right before the S phase. If something is wrong at the G1 checkpoint, the cell will not enter the S phase where DNA replication starts. The G2 checkpoint (DNA damage checkpoint) is right before the M phase. If DNA is damaged, the cell will not enter the M phase (mitosis).

25% or 1/4 of the offspring would have red flowers, 50% or 1/2 of the offspring would have pink flowers, and 25% or 1/4 of the offspring would have white flowers. i crossed rr and rr which are the pink-flowered genotypes to find these ratios.
