Question

Before any cell divides into two daughter cells,it must first duplicate its
A) entire genome.
B) cell membrane structure.
C) All of the answer choices are correct.
D) cytoplasmic contents.
E) array of enzymes.

Accepted Answer

Before any cell divides into two daughter cells, it must first duplicate its entire genome. This ensures that each daughter cell will receive a complete set of genetic information necessary for its functioning. Therefore, choice A is the correct option. Cell membrane structure, cytoplasmic contents, and array of enzymes are important for the cell's functioning, but they do not necessarily need to be fully duplicated before cell division occurs.
