<span>Trisomy is a condition in which a person's cells have three chromosomes in a single set. Normally, a person's chromosomes come in pairs and humans have 23 pairs of these chromosomes (46 in total).

When a person has a trisomy disorder, an additional chromosome is found in one of the pairs of chromosomes. When this happens the individual has a total of 47 chromosomes in his cells. Down syndrome, Edward syndrome, and Patau syndrome are the most common gene abnormalities caused by trisomy disorder.</span>

Which phase occurs directly after s phase
katrin [286]

Full question:

Which phase occurs directly after s phase...

A. G1

B.G2

C. Cytokinesis

D.M phase

The phase that occurs directly after s phase is G2 phase.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Synthesis phase is termed as S phase. This phase in the cell cycle occurs between two phases namely G1 and G2.It is the place where the replication of DNA takes place. This phase will make the DNA to chromosome and this is highly regulated. This phase is an important phase in the cell cycle as the replication of DNA occurs in this phase.

Apart from the replication of chromosomes, the growth of the cell that starts in the G1 phase will be continued with this phase.  Thus when the replication of DNA is full done, then S phase will be completed and it proceeds to the G2 phase.
