DNA replication occurs without increasing the chromosome number; in this way, there is enough DNA in the cell for two daughter cells, maintaining the same ploidy (number of chromosomal sets) as the parent cell. ... Chromosome replication will lead to a change in ploidy whereas DNA replication will not.
What is the ploidy after DNA replication?
After DNA replication, the cells is still genetically diploid (2N chromosome number), but has 4X DNA content because each chromosome has replicated its DNA. ... Mitosis ends with 2 identical cells, each with 2N chromosomes and 2X DNA content.
What process can change ploidy?
Phases of Meiosis | Back to Top
The old name for meiosis was reduction/ division. Meiosis I reduces the ploidy level from 2n to n (reduction) while Meiosis II divides the remaining set of chromosomes in a mitosis-like process (division).
