There is only one interphase, and it's the same as other cells: to grow, function, and replicate DNA. Meiosis is only a small part of cell cycle and interphase is not included in it. There are, however, two different phases in meiosis, such as prophase I and prophase II.

How many times does DNA replicate in meiosis?

1 time only which is done during the only interphase in meiosis.


Is DNA copied between meiosis 1 and meiosis 2?

No, replication only takes place in the S phase of Interphase. Although, a brief interphase exists between Meiosis 1 and Meiosis 2, there is no S-phase in this case. Hence, no replication takes place between meiosis 1 and 2.


Following telophase 1 of meiosis there is a period called which is similar to interphase except no replication of genetic material occurs?

Following telophase I, cells may or may not enter a stage known as interkinesis or interphase II. Interkinesis is similar to interphase I, but with no genetic material duplication.


DNA replication takes place when?

DNA replication takes place when preceding interphase.


What happens in interphase 1 to lead to variation?

In interphase I, a process called crossing over occurs during prophase I of meiosis. This is when homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material, creating new combinations of alleles, leading to genetic variation among offspring.


WHEN DO Chromosomes decondense into diffuse chromatin?

Chromosomes decondense into diffuse chromatin during interphase of the cell cycle. This occurs after cell division (mitosis or meiosis) is complete, allowing for gene expression and other cellular processes to take place.

What happens in meiosis 1 that does not occurs in meiosis 2?

DNA is copied (for novanet cheaters)


In mitosis how many times is the DNA copied?

In both mitosis and meiosis DNA replication only occurs once, during Interphase and Interphase 1, for mitosis and meiosis, respectively.


How many chromosomes would a cell have during metaphase 1 of meiosis if it has 12 chromosomes during interphase?

Meiosis is known as a reduction division. The total number of chromosomes present prior to meiosis is reduced in half at the end of meiosis. In this case 12 pairs of chromosomes before meiosis (a total of 24 chromosomes) becomes 12 chromosomes (one of each pair) at the end of meiosis.


Does DNA replication occur before the division of the nucleus in both meiosis and mitosis?

The cell cycle consists of interphase followed by cell division (in this case mitosis). it's true that DNA replication occurs during interphase, however interphase itself has 3 phases: 1. G1(=gap1): when the cell grows and fuctions 2. S (=Synthesis) when DNA replication occurs (as synthesizing anew DNA copy) 3. G2 (gap2): when the cell accumulates nutrients before the division itself.
