Question

is this a true statement that-

IN SYNTHESIS PHASE--

"MORE DNA IS SYNTHESISED,THE CHROMOSOMES ARE DUPLICATED"

Solution

Yes it is a true statement. Synthesis phase is the phase of DNA replication. DNA content doubles (from 2C to 4C), but chromosome number remains the same. (Remains diploid; 2n only). In this phase, the centriole also duplicates.
