Question

What happens if S-phase of mitosis is not continued with the cell division, it results in..
1. Haploid cells
2. Diploid cells
3. Triploid cells
4. Tetreploid cells

Answer 1

@abhisar, @shreehari499, @pagetar, @Somy

Answer 2

Its B

Answer 3

hmmmm

Answer 4

wait....if the cell is already diploid then it will result into D

Answer 5

s phase is DNA synthesis time if im not mistaken ?

Answer 6

yes DNA replication time to be more precise

Answer 7

and q is whats gonna happen if S phase does not occur?

Answer 8

n its what will happen if cell division does not takes place after S phase

Answer 9

then it wont be D

Answer 10

is would rather be D

Answer 11

during S phase no of chromosomes duplicate right?

Answer 12

so originally its 46 and duplicated would be 92

Answer 13

so it would be D ryt ?

Answer 14

yeah i guess

Answer 15

haploid is 23 and 92 is 4 times so it'd be D

Answer 16

me too \(\huge\ddot\smile\)

Answer 17

but there is an ambiguity, what if the cell was initially haploid ?

Answer 18

question is talking about mitosis

Answer 19

Mitosis takes place in haploid cells too

Answer 20

yeah but its mostly diploid cells

Answer 21

wait what mitosis in haploid cells?? where did this come from?

Answer 22

???

Answer 23

u r saying mitosis takes place in haploid cells

Answer 24

yes...m i wrong ?

Answer 25

i've never heard of that O_O

Answer 26

wait

Answer 27

its Meiosis that takes place is haploid cells ONLY and mitosis in regular cells

Answer 29

meiosis = reduction division

Answer 30

Makes all cells other than gametes. Growth, repair, and asexual reproduction.

Answer 31

gametes are haploid

Answer 32

okay ..do u agree mitosis can take place in haploid cells ?

Answer 33

no
there is 1 exception though

Answer 34

and as u see in the heading
its cancer.

Answer 35

okay so if a haploid cell undergoes meiosis then what will be the ploidy of daughter cells

Answer 36

23

Answer 37

wait now u make sense i think

Answer 38

23 is already haploid...if it undergoes meiosis according to u

Answer 39

actually diploid can undergo any division but haploid always undergoes mitosis

Answer 40

i guess i haven't learnt that

Answer 41

no no u r just getting confused with the terms i think

Answer 42

hmmmm i've gotta search that up

Answer 43

thank you so much friends for responding but finally what is the answer...?

@abhisar @Somy

Answer 44

i still think its D

Answer 45

@Somy is ryt if the parent cell is diploid but it can also be B if the parent cell is haploid. Now no condition is given in the question, so lets consider it to be the case of humans or angiosperms, then it will be D

Answer 46

thank you so much my friends for helping me out actually i got this is my entrance exam and i marked it as dipliod.....

Answer 47

thank you so much my friends @abhisar @Somy

Answer 48

u r welcome :)
