The full sequence of events in the cell cycle referred to as IPMATC is accurately represented by the sequence: Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Cytokinesis.

This sequence details the phases of mitosis, which is a crucial part of the cell cycle where a single cell divides to produce two genetically identical daughter cells. Interphase is the stage where the cell prepares for division, including DNA replication. Prophase marks the beginning of mitosis as chromosomes become visible, and the nuclear membrane starts to break down. During Metaphase, chromosomes align at the cell's equator. Anaphase follows, where sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles of the cell. Telophase is characterized by the reformation of the nuclear membranes around the two sets of chromosomes now at opposite ends of the cell. Finally, Cytokinesis divides the cytoplasm, completing the process of cell division.

Other options do not accurately reflect the phases involved in the cell cycle. Some of them introduce incorrect terminology or omit critical stages, leading to an inaccurate depiction of the process.
