If a cell did not replicate its DNA (during the S-phase) before beginning mitosis, then the two identical daughter cells would only get one chromosome from each pair. This, instead of the normal (diploid) 2 pairs of each chromosome (2×23=46), would lead to two haploid cells with 23 total chromosomes each. They would be unable to function and sustain life, thus would likely die soon after division.

Once a few years of severe drought affected the area, any wind storm was able to blow the topsoil away, rendering the farm land of the Great Plains virtually unusable in many areas. Ground cover is an essential part of sustainable agriculture.
