Cell Division: Mitosis Quiz Review

Why would it be important to replicate DNAbefore a cell divides in mitosis?

• In order for genetic information to be transferred into daughter cells.

• In order for the cell to be able to increase in size.

• In order for the DNA to be contained in the nucleus.

• In order for the cell to re-order the DNA sequencing in the new cells.
