Question

below is a diagram of the cell cycle.
cell cycle
m - mitotic phase
prophase
metaphase
anaphase
teleophase
cytokinesis
interphase
growth and normal metabolic roles
g1 - first growth phase
growth and preparation for mitosis
g2 - second growth phase
s - synthesis phase
dna replication
what will happen if the dna is not replicated?
mitosis will likely not occur.
cytokinesis will occur before mitosis.
mitosis will decrease the size of the cell.
the number of chromosomes will reduce by half during mitosis.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

DNA replication occurs in the S - phase of the cell cycle and is necessary for mitosis. Without replicated DNA, the cell cannot proceed with mitosis as there won't be enough genetic material to divide properly between daughter cells.

Answer:

Mitosis will likely not occur.
