In which stage of cell cycle, DNA replication occurs?
- AG1-phase
- BS-phase
- CG2-phase
- DM-phase
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
During S phase or synthetic phase the
replication of DNA takes place. For replication of
DNA histone, proteins are required so they are also
synthesized during this phase. It takes about 30%-
50% of the total cell cycle.
Prophase and telophase are stages involved in mitosis
or meiosis. During G2
phase division of centrioles,
mitochondria and chloroplasts occurs.
