Chromosomes become duplicated during meiosis. This is the process of replicating sex cells, otherwise known as gametes. This is how humans create new sex cells for reproduction.

Name the phase of cell division when duplicated chromosomes first appear?

The phase of cell division when duplicated chromosomes first appear is called the prophase. In prophase, the chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes, and the nuclear envelope breaks down, allowing the chromosomes to be more clearly visible.


How many chromatids does your cell have after your 46 chromosomes are duplicated?

After your 46 chromosomes are duplicated, your cell will have a total of 92 chromatids.


Are chromosomes duplicated during interphase or mitosis?

Chromosomes are duplicated during interphase, specifically during the S phase of the cell cycle. Mitosis is the process of cell division where the duplicated chromosomes are separated into two daughter cells.


Are chromosomes in a duplicated or an unduplicated state when crossing over occurs?

It is in a duplicated state.


Are chromosomes in a duplicated or in unduplicated state when crossing over occurs?

It is in a duplicated state.


How does the number of chromosomes in metaphase of mitosis compare to the number of duplicated chromosomes in metaphase 2 of meiosis?

In metaphase of mitosis, the number of chromosomes is equal to the number of duplicated chromosomes. However, in metaphase 2 of meiosis, the number of chromosomes is half that of the duplicated chromosomes, since meiosis involves two rounds of cell division to produce haploid cells.


What are paired up chromosomes called?

duplicated


When are chromosomes duplicated before or after mitosis?

during


In what process are chromosomes duplicated?

Chromosomes are duplicated during the S phase of the cell cycle in a process called DNA replication. This ensures that each daughter cell receives a complete set of genetic material during cell division.


When are cells haploid but the chromosomes are still in the duplicated state?

my college bio proffessor told me that even though chromosomes are still in the duplicated state, the chromosomes are duplicated so technically they do have "23" chromosomes but they instead have 2 sets of it. these 2 sets are the same so they dont count as a "full" set of 46 chromosomes. :) hope this helps!!


What phase of the cell cycle has a single line of chromosomes?

During the G1 phase of the cell cycle, chromosomes are not yet duplicated and appear as a single line of chromosomes within the cell. This is before DNA replication occurs in the S phase and chromosomes are temporarily duplicated.


Are the stages of mitosis?

The five basic stages of mitosis are: interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. In prophase, the genetic material in the nucleus condenses and the duplicated chromosomes become visible. The nucleolus disappears and the nuclear envelope begins to break down, spindle fibers also start extending from both poles of the cell. In metaphase, the duplicated chromosomes become aligned in the center of the cell, spindle fibers attach themselves to the centromere of the chromosomes. In anaphase, the stage of mitosis in which the duplicated sets of chromosomes separate and two identical groups move to opposite poles of the cell. in telophase, a nuclear membrane re-forms around each new group of chromosomes.
