A) may begin to replicate DNA before it is ready or allow damaged DNA to be replicated and then continue dividing inappropriately.If unchecked,this cell division could continue to form a potentially cancerous tumor.
B) will immediately enter into mitosis without replicating its DNA during S phase.The cell will not be able to survive because it will have too few chromosomes.
C) will complete mitotic separation of its replicated DNA but will not complete cytokinesis.
D) life cycle will stop before DNA replication and separation can occur.This dead cell will become a potentially cancerous tumor.
