Yes, the above statement is true.
Explanation:
- Before a cell divides, it needs to replicate its DNA.
- This is because as a result of division, two daughter cells will be formed in case of mitosis.
- The daughter cells each will require DNA content of their own.
- Hence, before the division of a chromosome, the DNA content needs to be replicated so that each of the daughter cells acquire the same amount of DNA.
