When a cell reproduces, what happens to its DNA?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

When a cell reproduces, its DNA gets transferred from parents to the offspring where it gets replicated, producing two copies of DNA. When the cell divides into two, these two copies are distributed equally between the two daughter cells so that similar amount and type of DNA is transferred from the parent cell to the daughter cells.
