yes


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.


When do chromosomes (DNA) replicate?

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


Process during which chromosomes appear?

Chromosomes replicate during cell division, so are present as a new cell forms.


Which stage of cells cycle do the chromosomes replicated?

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


What do chromosomes do before mitosis?

Before mitosis begins, the chromosomes in a cell replicate. This occurs during the S (synthesis) phase. Chromosomes need to replicate so that when the cell divides at the end of mitosis, the daughter cells each recieve a copy of the chromosomes.


How many times chromosomes replicate in meiosis?

They replicate before meiosis begins, as it is the division phase. The chromosomes duplicate during interphase which is right before the beginning of meiosis. After going through meiosis I the chromosomes DO NOT duplicate nor do they cross over they simply continue on. Hope this helps. :)


What phase of mitosis do the chromosomes replicate?

Strictly speaking, the chromosomes are not copied during mitosis but already before cell division takes place. This phase is called INTERPHASE and is again divided into three phases, G1 (first gap), S (synthesis), and G2 (second gap). The replication of chromosomes only happens in the S phase.
