Answer:

b. Barring mutation, the two sister chromatids must be identical.

Explanation:

Prior to meiosis, the DNA is replicated so cells enter division with all its chromosomes having two sister chromatids united at the centromere.

DNA replication is semiconservative: the original DNA strands are separated and new strands are synthesized using the original ones as templates. As a result, each sister chromatid is made of one original DNA strand and a newly synthesized DNA strand, and both should be identical to each other.

Based on your readings about Bt corn, express your opinion about whether or not farmers should continue planting Bt corn. Explai
miss Akunina [59]
Farmers should discontinue the use of Bt corn (genetically modified maize)as their negative affects on the health of the consumers have not been fully over ruled by the recent research. In my opinion, genetically modified crops, although, are resistant to various pests, should not be encouraged because of the toxic chemical contents used during their production. There's a strong likelihood of these toxic chemicals entering our food chain and also being harmful to other naturally growing plants, hence there's a need for more research before this idea is pursued.

Watch the animation, DNA Replication. After DNA replication, how many double-stranded DNA molecules exist?
dsp73

Answer:

The DNA is a double helix or made up of two strands. The strands are separated during replication, each serving as a template to produce a complementary strand of each of the separated single strands. Therefore after replication, two double stranded DNA molecules will be present.
