What is the result of mitosis cell division?
One daughter cell with double the DNA of parent cell
Do chromosomes have twice the DNA that one cell needs?
No. Chromosomes have the exact number of DNA a cell needs. When undergoing mitosis, the chromosomes replicate inside the cell. Only during that small period of time, does a normal human cell have twice the DNA that a cell needs. The end stage of mitosis is when the cell divides into two, equally dividing the DNA amongst the two daughter cells.
The phase of mitosis which is actually the non-dividing phase of the cell Cell spends 90 percent of its time in this phase?
During the interphase stage of mitosis, the cell does not divide and spends a big portion of the time at this stage. During that time, the cell synthesizes its DNA and doubles the cytoplasm.
DNA is copied in which stage of the cell cycle?
DNA is replicated during the Synthesis (S) phase of cell growth. This comes after G1 and before G2. Mitosis follows G2.
What provided the information for cell growth and function?
The DNA is the molecule that provides theinformation for cell growth and function.
What is the result of mitosis cell division?
One daughter cell with double the DNA of parent cell
If a cell is not undergoing mitosis then which of the following stages is it in?
It would be in the Interphase stage. Interphase is the stage where a normal somatic cell is not undergoing mitosis and is the period of growth and DNA replication before the start of Mitosis.
Explain why DNA replication must occur before mitosis starts?
DNA replication mus occur before mitosis starts. Mitosis is another word for cell division and so there must be two copies of DNA for each cell at the end stage.
What is the stage of the cell when DNA replication occurs?
No, the stage of the cell cycle when DNA replication occurs is not called telophase. DNA replication occurs in the S (Synthesis) phase of the cell cycle. Telophase is the last stage of mitosis or meiosis, when the nuclear envelopes re-form (it occurs at the same time as cytokinesis - which separates the cells).
What is it called when DNA separate into two strands?
DNA Replication by enzymes that copy DNA for chromosomes in the new cell after cell division (mitosis)
What does the cell do before mitosis begins?
the stage before mitosis is called interphase and majority of the time the cell has is spent in interphase. during interphase the cell acquires nutrients and the DNA replicates.
What is the beginning point of mitosis?
The first stage of actual mitosis is prophase when the chromosomes are condensed and are forming rodlike structures. The first stage of the cell cycle, however, is interphase, when the cell is resting, growing, and copying its DNA.
What is the stage of cell cycle during which the cell's nucleus divides into two nuclei and one copy of the DNA is distributed into each daughter cell?
For a body cell it is called mitosis and for a sex cell it is called meiosis
Why is metaphase the longest stage in mitosis?
Metaphase is the stage of mitosis in which the all of the cell's chromosomes align along the equator of the cell. It is the final stage before the cell splits into two daughter cells.
What begins the cells before the mitosis?
the stage before mitosis is called interphase and majority of the time the cell has is spent in interphase. during interphase the cell acquires nutrients and the DNA replicates.
