When do chromosomes replicate during meiosis-?
The chromosomes replicate during interphase in meiosis.
Asked in Biology
When do chromosomes replicate during meiosis?
Chromosomes replicate in the Interphase part of Meiosis and
throughout the whole process of Meiosis they only replicate
once.
Asked in Biology, Chromosomes
Why do chromosomes replicate?
They replicate to form two identical daughter cells.
Asked in Biology, Genetics
Why is it essential for the chromosomes to replicate before the cell division occurs?
Because if the chromosomes don't replicate before the cell
divides, then the new cell wouldn't have the chromosomes it
needed.
Asked in Biology, Genetics
The chromosomes do this in preparation for mitosis?
replicate or duplicate
Asked in Genetics, Chromosomes
When do chromosomes replicated?
Chromosomes replicate in the first stage of mitosis or
meiosis-interphase
Asked in Chromosomes
What is the phase called where chromosomes duplicate?
Chromosomes replicate in the S phase of interphase.
Asked in Genetics
What phase of mitosis do the chromosomes replicate?
Chromosomes replicate during interphase. Specifically it occurs
during S-phase which is one of three phases in interphase.
Asked in Genetics
Suppose the DNA in the chromosomes of a cell did not replicate?
If the DNA did not replicate, daughter cells would not be
formed.
Asked in Biology, Genetics
Why must the chromosomes replicate before cell division?
Chromosomes must replicate so that both cells that are formed
from cell division can have the same genetic material.
Asked in Genetics
When chromosomes replicate they produce?
when the chromosomes are replicated the cells were about to
divide into 2 cells (mitosis)
Asked in Genetics
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.
Asked in Genetics, Chromosomes
When do chromosomes replicate into mitosis?
mitosis is the process by which the DNA of a cell is copied, so
chromosomes replicated throughout the process
Asked in Genetics
What is the main function of mitosis?
to split the chromosomes and to replicate or reproduce the
cell
Asked in Genetics
What happens if the chromosomes do not replicate correctly?
A genetic mutation could result.
Asked in Health
Process during which chromosomes appear?
Chromosomes replicate during cell division, so are present as a
new cell forms.
Asked in Genetics, Biology, Biochemistry
What would result if chromosomes didn't replicate in interphase?
A lack of [Genetic] continuity.
Asked in Biology, Colonial America
What is episome?
Genetic element/material that can insert into chromosomes or
replicate as circular plasmid.
Asked in Genetics
What part of mitosis when the chromosomes replicate and become organized?
Chromosomal re-segregation.
Asked in Biology
How many times do 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. :)
Asked in Genetics
What information do chromosomes contain?
They contain DNA, which tells cells how to correctly replicate
themselves.
Edited answer:
Chromosomes contain genetic information
Asked in Genetics
Which stage of a cells cycle do the chromosomes replicated?
Chromosomes replicate when DNA replicates during the S phase
(synthesis) of of the cell cycle.
Asked in Science
Why it is important for chromosomes to replicate before mitosis begins?
Because the daughter cells have to have the same number of
chromosomes you began with.
When the cells go through mitosis the get split. If you split a
cell with 46 chromosomes into two, you would only have 23 each.
That's why it needs to replicate beforehand. It will make sure
the cells always have 46 chromosomes.
