Does Dna Condense in G2

It follows the successful completion of S phase, during which the cell’s DNA is replicated. G2 phase ends with the onset of prophase, the first phase of mitosis in which the cell’s chromatin condenses into chromosomes.

What happens to DNA in G2 phase?

During the S-phase, DNA synthesis takes place to completely replicate the double stranded DNA molecule. … After completing DNA synthesis and progression through the G2 phase, the cell divides in mitosis by segregating the chromosomes into two separate daughter cells.

During which phase is DNA less condensed?

During interphase (1), chromatin is in its least condensed state and appears loosely distributed throughout the nucleus.
