Answer : a
Hints & Solutions
(a) $G_0$ or resting phase is a non-growing state distinct from interphase. It is a period in the cell cycle in which cells exist in a quiescent state. It is viewed as either an extended $G_1$ phase, where the cell is neither dividing nor preparing to divide, or a distinct quiescent stage that occurs outside of the cell cycle.
