During cell cycle there are checkpoints. They best way to define a checkpoint is? a) a location within the cell where proteins are inspected for mutations b) G1, S, G2, prophase metaphase anaphase or telophase c) specific stages where further progress of the cell cycle can be halted d) any step where the cell cycle is blocked by a mutated protein
