Answer:
The G1 phase is what we call the growth and development phase of the cell cycle.
This phase is part of the interphase stage where the cell prepares for cell division.
Certain events take place at the G1 phase:
1. Cell grows larger.
2. Organelles are replicated
3. Enzymes and proteins are produced for future use (not too far into the future because it will divide soon enough)
It is at this point that the cell prepares itself to become two cells. all the enzymes and proteins it will make will be used later on, when it goes through cell division.
