A particular cell has half as much DNA as some other cells in a mitotically active tissue. The cell in question is most likely in:
Correct answer: A. G1
- A. G1
- B. G2
- C. Prophase
- D. Metaphase
Explanation
This is the first phase of cell cycle,where cell grows and carry out their normal functions.It is likely that the cell has not undergo replication yet therefore it is in G1 phase.Before entering S phase amount of DNA increases.

About Cell Structure and Function
Animal, plant, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are compared through their membranes, cell walls, nuclei and cytoplasmic organelles. The work includes the structures and functions of mitochondria, chloroplasts, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus and lysosomes, as well as chromosome organization and the distinction between chromatin and chromosomes.

Through a microscope, you can see a cell plate beginning to develop across the middle of a cell and nuclei re-forming on either side of the cell plate. This cell is most likely:
Besides the ability of some cancer cells to over proliferate, what else could logically result in a tumor?
Cells from an advanced malignant tumor most often have very abnormal chromosomes, and often an abnormal total number of chromosomes. Why might this occur?
One difference between cancer cells and normal cells is that cancer cells:
In the cells of some organisms, mitosis occurs without cytokinesis. This will result in:
