Solution

The correct option is B False
  • Reproducing cells replicate DNA. DNA carries the information for making all of the cell's proteins.
  • These pro­teins implement all of the functions of a living organism and determine the organism'­s characteristics. When the cell reproduces, it has to pass all of this information on to the daughter cells.
  • Before a cell can reproduce, it must first replicate, or make a copy of its DNA. Where DNA replication occurs depends upon whether the cells is a prokaryote or a eukaryote
