Among eukaryotes, replication of DNA takes place in :
- AS phase
- BG1 phase
- CG2 phase
- DM phase
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: A
In eukaryotes, DNA replication takes place during the S phase (Synthesis phase) of the cell cycle. During this phase, the entire genome is replicated, resulting in two copies of each chromosome to ensure that both daughter cells receive a complete set of genetic information during cell division.
