Is My Understanding of Chromosome Numbers in Meiosis Accurate?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the accuracy of understanding chromosome numbers during meiosis, specifically after DNA replication in a fertilized cell. Participants confirm that following S-phase replication, the number of DNA molecules and mass indeed doubles, resulting in 2m and 92. There is acknowledgment of potential complexities regarding DNA molecule numbers, but the consensus is that the initial interpretation is correct. Overall, the dialogue reinforces the understanding that DNA replication leads to an increase in both the quantity and mass of DNA. The discussion concludes with a clear affirmation of the accuracy of the initial assessment.

In the picture you can see 2 table.
Table-1 is the original table that I got on my question,and table-2 is my answer.
I would like to know if I correct.



Thanks.

After DNA multiplication in a fertilized cell, the DNA molecules and mass will double...so 2m and 92.

This is referring to S-phase replication, before mitosis.

There might be something tricky about the number of DNA molecules, but I think what I said is correct.
 
yep i think you are correct.

thank you :)
 
yes you are right, as already stated the DNA molecules will double as well as mass.
