True or false cell increases in size it usually makes extra copies of its DNA?

A cell does not make "extra copies" of DNA. Through a persons life, DNA can only be copied so many times. The only time DNA does "copy itself" would be if a new cell is needed. For example, your skin cells die all the time and are shedded off from your skins surface. Your skin then is going to get to the point where more cells are going to be made. The DNA replicating process is what starts the process of cell mitosis (making more cells). All the DNA in your body is used, so a cell does not make extra copies of DNA. If the DNA gets destroyed, that cell dies and is replaced by another.
