14. Can there be mitosis without DNA replication in ‘S’ phase?

Answers (1)

Without DNA replication in S phase, mitosis cannot occur. During DNA replication, DNA duplicates and this is a very important step. If DNA duplication does not occur than even in mitosis, there will be a reduction in the number of chromosomes of daughter cells. Thus, mitosis cannot occur without DNA replication.
