Cell A has half as much DNA as cells B, C, and D in a mitotically active tissue. Cell A is most likely ina. G1.b. G2.c. prophase.d. metaphase.

During what phase in the cell cycle would you find the most DNA per cell?

After S phase, what makes up a single chromosome?a. two daughter chromosomesb. a double-stranded DNA moleculec. two single-stranded DNA moleculesd. two sister chromatids

It is difficult to observe individual chromosomes during interphase becausea. the DNA has not been replicated yet.b. they are in the form of long, thin strands.c. they leave the nucleus and are dispersed to other parts of the cell.d. homologous chromosomes do not pair up until division starts.

Which of the following occurs during S phase?(A) condensation of the chromosomes(B) replication of the DNA(C) separation of sister chromatids(D) spindle formation

A biochemist measured the amount of DNA in cells growing in the laboratory and found that the quantity of DNA in a cell doubleda. between prophase and anaphase of mitosis.b. between the G1 and G2 phases of the cell cycle.c. during the M phase of the cell cycle.d. between prophase I and prophase II of meiosis.

A particular cell type spends 4 hours in G1 phase, 2 hours in S phase, 2 hours in G2 phase, and 30 minutes in M phase. If a pulse–chase experiment were performed with radioactive thymidine on an asynchronous culture of such cells, what percentage of mitotic cells would be radiolabeled 9 hours after the pulse?a. 0 percentb. 50 percentc. 75 percentd. 100 percent

If a cell at G1 contains four picograms of DNA, how many picograms of DNA will it contain at the end of the S phase of the cell cycle?a. 0;b. 2;c. 4;d. 8
