The DNA content of a diploid cell in prophase II will be 2x.
What happens in Prophase I and Prophase II?
- In both mitosis and meiosis, the prophase is the first phase of cell division.
- When the cell enters prophase, DNA replication has already started after interphase.
- While prophase II takes place after the cell has divided, prophase happens before the cell begins to divide.
- The primary distinction between these two phases is that chromosomes in prophase are still linked at their centromeres, whereas chromatids have been pushed apart in prophase II.
- After going through prophase II, a diploid cell in prophase I double in size. If we represent the amount of DNA in the diploid cell in this scenario as x, then the identical cell has a DNA count of 2x after going through prophase II.
