Before a cell divides, the DNA is checked to make sure it replicated correctly. This

piece of DNA is an exact copy of the DNA from which it came. When the parent cell

divided to create two cells, the cell's DNA also divide creating two identical copies of

the original DNA. What will happen if the DNA does not copy itself correctly?​

Answer:

the cell will die

Step-by-step explanation:
