Respuesta :

A G1 cell has half as much DNA as some of the other cells in a mitotically active tissue.

Why does G1 cell has half DNA ?

  1. Mitotically active tissue is tissue that is actively dividing cells, such as the root tip of a plant or a growing embryo.
  2. The cell cycle comprises two phases :                                                             - the interphase : during which the cell rests and expands                    - the M phase : during which cell division occurs.
  3. The DNA is copied and double the quantity of DNA than the mother cell is created during the S phase of the interphase so that the genetic material is evenly split amongst the daughter cells following the division.
  4. If a cell is mitotically active, it will undergo a continual synthesis phase after each cell division in order to furnish the daughter cell with the same quantity of DNA as the mother cell.
  5. So, if a cell in a mitotically active tissue contains half the DNA of the other cells in the tissue, the cell will be in G1, which occurs after the M phase and before the S phase, where the DNA will replicate.

What are the Primary Functions of the G1 Phase?

  1. Because this is the time when a cell grows, the G1 phase is also known as the growth phase.
  2. During this phase, the cell synthesizes various enzymes and nutrients that are needed later on for DNA replication and cell division.
  3. The duration of the G1 phase is variable and it often depends on the nutrients that are available to a cell.
  4. Cells produce the most proteins during the G1 phase.
