Why does a cell copy its DNA?
Cell must copy its DNA before cell division so that every new cell has a copy of genome .
Do cells replicate or copy their DNA before going through meiosis?
Yes. The DNA is replicated during interphase before prophase I.
What must a cell do before it can divide to a new cell?
It must make a copy of its deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
What must DNA do to itsself before it can divide?
Since 2 daughter cells will be created during cell division, DNA must first duplicate itself so that each cell gets the same DNA as the parent cell. Then it condenses into chromosomes that are symmetrical, with each sister chromatid on either side containing identical information.
What event must occur outside the nucleus before mitosis can begin?
Before mitosis can happen, the chromosomes inside the nucleus must separate to form identical pairs. This sets the stage for each of the daughter cells to have a copy of the DNA to replicate the full sequence.
Why is it necessary the cell copies its DNA?
cells must copy their DNA to replicate
Why does a cell copy its DNA?

What must a cell do before it divided?
Copy it's DNA

How does DNA make the copy exactly the same as the original?
Yes. The cells go through mitosis, where the DNA doubles its chromosomes and eventually separate, giving an exact copy as the cell before.
What must happen before a cell divides?
Before a cell can dividess, it makes a copy of its DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid).
Why does a nucleic acid subunit copy DNA?
the subunits copy DNA because they are used to build cells
What is the copy of the parent cells DNA?
daughter cells bro! daughter cells...
When and why does DNA need to be replicated?
When cells divide, the new cells produced must have a full set of genes in order to function correctly. Genes are made of DNA so it is necessary to replicate (copy) the DNA before the cell divides.
What event must occur outside the nucleus before mitosis can begin?
Before mitosis can happen, the chromosomes inside the nucleus must separate to form identical pairs. This sets the stage for each of the daughter cells to have a copy of the DNA to replicate the full sequence.
