Question

Which of the following best describes how the parent cell produces daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes during asexual reproduction?

Answer 1

Sister chromatids are copied during interphase, and during anaphase they separate to form two nuclei.
Sister chromatids are separated into two nuclei, and after telophase they are replicated.
The chromosomes are copied during interphase, and during mitosis they separate into two nuclei.
The chromosomes are separated during interphase and form two individual nuclei during prophase.

Answer 2

It helps us help you understand the question (and the answer) if you also post up what specifically you don't understand as well as the question. Or it's also helpful if you post the answer.

In this case, the key is understanding two things:

1. When chromosomes are duplicated - i.e., at what stage of the cell cycle DNA replication occurs.

2. When the duplicated chromosomes separate into different nuclei.

If you let us know what aspects of the problem you need help with, it will make helping you with them a lot easier!

Answer 3

prettty much the entire problem i needed help with! lol. but thank you ill try to make it more clear next time (:

Answer 4

Cool.

The cell cycle has two basic phases: interphase and mitosis. Interphase is when the cell grows and functions normally. Mitosis is when the cell divides. Each of those two phases can be further divided into subphases: interphase consists of three phases, growth phase 1 (G1), synthesis (S) and growth phase 2 (G2). And mitosis consists of prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.

Is that stuff you know?

Answer 5

yeahp, that's what i'm studying now.

Answer 6

OK, let's deal with the first part of the question. When in those phases is DNA replicated?

Answer 7

S phase :D

Answer 8

so whats the answer?
