out of these answers what is G-2 checkpoints answers

Question

check that DNA is copied correctly Check for damaged chromosomes are lined up and ready

Answer 1

The G2 checkpoint in the cell cycle primarily serves to ensure that the cell is prepared to enter mitosis (M phase). The specific functions of the G2 checkpoint include:

1. Check that DNA is copied correctly: This involves verifying that DNA replication has been completed accurately and that there are no errors in the replicated DNA.

2. Check for damaged chromosomes: The G2 checkpoint assesses whether there are any DNA damage or defects in the chromosomes before the cell proceeds to mitosis. If damage is detected, the cell may repair it before continuing.

In summary, both answers you've provided reflect key functions of the G2 checkpoint: ensuring proper DNA replication and checking for chromosome integrity.
