Question

following dna replication, chromosomes condense around histones in the nucleus. true false question 4 1 pts cytokinesis typically begins during the ______ stage of mitosis. anaphase skill: knowledge/comprehension metaphase telophase prophase

Explanation:

• For the first statement: After DNA replication in the cell cycle (during the S - phase), in the prophase of mitosis (or prophase I/II of meiosis), chromosomes condense around histone proteins to form a more compact structure, which is essential for proper segregation during cell division. So the statement "Following DNA replication, chromosomes condense around histones in the nucleus" is True.
• For the second question: Cytokinesis is the process of dividing the cytoplasm to form two daughter cells. In animal cells, a cleavage furrow begins to form during anaphase (in plant cells, a cell plate starts to form during telophase, but the onset of cytokinesis in terms of the start of the physical process - like the appearance of the cleavage furrow in animals - is during anaphase).

Answer:

• First question: True
• Second question: anaphase
