A parenchymatous cell has 20 units of DNA. It starts to divide mitotically. How many units of DNA would it have
during late prophase

Open in App

Solution

The number of DNA units is already doubled in the S-phase. Hence, during the late Prophase in mitosis the amount of DNA would be 40 units.
So, the correct answer is '40'.
