mitosis is the process by which the DNA of a cell is copied, so chromosomes replicated throughout the process

Which stage of cells cycle do the chromosomes replicated?

Chromosomes replicate when DNA replicates during the S phase (synthesis) of of the cell cycle.


When do chromosomes replicate during meiosis?

Chromosomes replicate during the S phase of interphase, before meiosis begins. This ensures that each chromosome consists of two sister chromatids, which are then separated during the meiotic divisions to produce haploid cells.


What must happen before meiosis can begin?

DNA replicates and forms tetrad—APEX.


What ia a plasmid?

Plasmids are a part of DNA but it's separate from the chromosomes. It's able to replicate and they occur in bacteria.


How does the cell replicate DNA?

Cells do not replicate "In DNA". Cells replicate their DNA during the process of cell division.


How is DNA related to the chromosomes found in the nucleus of a cell?

DNA is the genetic material that makes up chromosomes in the nucleus of a cell. Each chromosome consists of a long strand of DNA wrapped around proteins called histones. The DNA within chromosomes contains the instructions needed for the cell to function and replicate.


What must DNA do Before chromosomes can form?

Before chromosomes can form, DNA must replicate to ensure that each daughter cell receives a complete set of genetic material during cell division. This process occurs during the S phase of the cell cycle.


What happens to a cells DNA in interphase prophase and metaphase?

In interphase, the cell's DNA replicates to form identical copies of each chromosome. In prophase, the DNA condenses into visible chromosomes and the nuclear envelope breaks down. In metaphase, the chromosomes line up along the cell's equator.


What are chromosomeswhere and when they are visible in the cell?

Chromosomes contain tightly-packed DNA, and are visible only when the cell is preparing to replicate (before mitosis/meiosis).


Why do chromosomes replicate?

They replicate to form two identical daughter cells.


Does DNA contain 23 chromosomes?

No. DNA doesn't contain chromosomes. Chromosomes are DNA.


When chromosomes replicate they produce?

When chromosomes replicate, they produce two identical sister chromatids that are connected at a region called the centromere. This process ensures that each daughter cell receives a complete set of genetic information during cell division.
