The sequential phase of cell cycle is
  1. S G1 G2 M

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: B - G1 S G2 M
The cell cycle runs G1 -> S (DNA synthesis) -> G2 -> M (mitosis). DNA is replicated in the S phase between the two gap phases, so neither G2 nor mitosis can come before it in a cycle that starts at G1.
