You are looking at tissue under a microscope. One cell shows half the amount of DNA of some of the other cells. This cell is most likely to be in the G1 phase where the cell has just divided. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
<h2>The following scenarios state whether the mutation is likely to be passed on to the offspring of the organism or not:
</h2><h2></h2>
a. A single bacteria cell contains a positive mutation in its DNA - The mutation is likely to pass as it is a unicellular organism with the cell itself containing the positive mutation.
b. A skin cell on a cat contains a positive mutation in its DNA - The mutation is not likely to pass as it is the skin cell.
C. A sperm cell in a whale contains a positive mutation in its DNA - The mutation is likely to pass as it is in the sperm.
