Question

Question 10: Imagine 100 cells were chosen randomly from a tissue sample. In which phase would you expect to find the largest number of cells? Explain.
Question 11: Compare the amount of DNA at the beginning and end of synthesis. Why did the amount of DNA change?
Question 12: Fill in the "Key Process" column for synthesis phase in Model 2 table.
Question 13: Cyto = cell, kinesis = cutting. What do you think takes place during cytokinesis?
Question 14: Other than cytokinesis, what else occurs during the mitosis phase? (Hint: Consider DNA sets)
Question 15: Look carefully at Model 1 and Model 2. Fill in the Key Process column for Gap1.

The largest number of cells would be expected in the interphase, specifically in the G1 phase, as this is the phase where cells spend most of their time growing and performing regular cellular functions before DNA replication.
The amount of DNA doubles during the synthesis phase (S phase) because DNA replication occurs, resulting in two copies of each chromosome.
The key process for the synthesis phase is DNA replication.
During cytokinesis, the cytoplasm of a single eukaryotic cell divides to form two daughter cells.
During the mitosis phase, nuclear division occurs, which involves the separation of duplicated chromosomes into two sets, one for each daughter cell.
The key process for Gap1 (G1) is cell growth and preparation for DNA replication.
