Answer:
Will the DNA content of a cell ever change? Explain
- Yes, the DNA content of a cell changes during diferent stages.
These events include fertilization, DNA synthesis and different
stages of Mitosis and Meiosis.
- The amount of DNA doubles due to replication just before
mitosis and at the end of Mitosis the DNA content is back to
normal. DNA content increases at the end of the interphase of
meiosis and decreases from Anaphase to Telophase. When each
homologous chromosomes separate into each daughter cells, the DNA
content is again halved.
