More DNA. The DNA unzips and then makes more from the code that genes give, It has to fit A with T and C with G. Mutations happen when the DNA does not unzip on time and the new DNA still sticks to the DNA that was supposed to unzip

Difference between sister chromatids and homologous chromosomes?

Homologous chromosomes are individual chromosomes inherited from each parent. Sister chromatids are the result of DNA replication, and the are identical.


Is the process of duplicating chromosomes prior to cell division.?

DNA replication


What is the difference between replicated chromosomes and unreplicated chromosomes in DNA?

Replicated chromosomes have undergone DNA replication, producing two identical sister chromatids joined by a centromere. Unreplicated chromosomes have not undergone DNA replication and consist of a single chromatid. Replicated chromosomes are found during the S phase of the cell cycle, while unreplicated chromosomes are present in the G1 phase.


Is DNA replication the same as mitosis?

No, DNA replication is the process of duplicating the DNA molecules, resulting in two identical copies. Mitosis, on the other hand, is a type of cell division that specifically involves the separation of replicated chromosomes into two identical daughter cells.


Why are Chromosomes called Double Chromosomes?

After DNA replication, there are double the number of chromosomes, which will be divided into two identical daughter nuclei during mitosis. For example, a normal human body cell has 46 chromosomes. When it undergoes DNA replication, the chromosomes are doubled so that there will be 92 chromosomes, consisting of 46 pairs of sister chromatids. During mitosis, the sister chromatids separate into two identical daughter nuclei, each having 46 chromosomes.


How Many Copies of DNA Result in Replication and amp how do they compare?

During DNA replication, one original double-stranded DNA molecule is transformed into two identical double-stranded DNA molecules. Each of the resulting copies consists of one original strand and one newly synthesized strand, a process known as semiconservative replication. Thus, after replication, there are two copies of DNA, each identical to the original. These copies are genetically identical to one another and to the original DNA molecule.


Chromosomes are replicated by?

Chromosomes are replicated during the S phase of the cell cycle through a process called DNA replication. This process involves unwinding the DNA strands, synthesizing new complementary strands, and proofreading for accuracy. The result is two identical copies of each chromosome, known as sister chromatids.


What do we condense DNA into before replication occurs?

Before replication occurs, DNA is condensed into chromosomes.


If you compare the original DNA to the two copies that are made after replication occurs what would you find?

Unless mutation occur the two copies of DNA that are made after replication are identical to its original form. Thus continuous replication of DNA in the chromosomes does not alter its nature.


Replication in a sentence?

Do the two DNA double helics following DNA replication have the same or a different composition?

They should be identical to the original DNA that underwent replication.
