You are given a metaphase chromosome preparation (a slide) from an unknown organism that contains 12 chromosomes. Two that are clearly smaller than the rest appear identical in length and centromere placement.

What would most likely be true of these two chromosomes? Select all that apply.

They have similar banding patterns.

They contain identical genetic information.

They would replicate synchronously during the S phase of the cell cycle.

They are homologous chromosomes.

Respuesta :

Answer:

True answers are as follow:

a. They have similar banding patterns.

c. They would replicate synchronously during the S phase of the cell cycle.

d. They are homologous chromosomes.

Explanation:

In Mitosis, chromosomes condense and align in the center before moving to each opposite pole is called meta-phase. (See attached picture)

In this stage you will observe similar banding pattern of homologous chromosomes that were replicated during S phase of cell cycle.
