Question

the steps involved in the eukaryotic cell cycle are shown. the specialized cells in the image develop during cell differentiation. how does the cell cycle assist specialized cells? a. it adds new dna to the cells that code for specific functions. b. it copies the dna that provides the instructions for specialization. c. it splits up the dna into different cell types during cellular division. d. it combines the dna from the sperm and the egg cells to create cells with unique functions.

Explanation:

Specialized cells develop through cell - differentiation. During the cell cycle, the S phase is responsible for DNA replication. DNA contains the instructions for cell functions and specialization. When DNA replicates, it copies the DNA that provides the instructions for specialization.

Answer:

B. It copies the DNA that provides the instructions for specialization.
