Question

in which stage of the cell cycle does dna replicate in order to have two copies for cell division?
o a cytokinesis
o b mitosis
o c s
o d g1
o e go
o f g2

Explanation:

• Cytokinesis (a): This is the process of dividing the cytoplasm to form two daughter cells, not DNA replication.
• Mitosis (b): It is the process of nuclear division, not DNA replication.
• S phase (c): In the cell cycle, the S (synthesis) phase is when DNA replicates. This ensures that each new cell will have a complete set of genetic information after cell division.
• G1 (d): This is the first gap phase where the cell grows and prepares for DNA replication.
• G0 (e): A resting phase where the cell is not actively dividing or preparing to divide.
• G2 (f): The second gap phase where the cell prepares for mitosis.

Answer:

C. S
