Answer:

C. During interphase

Step-by-step explanation:

Interphase points to all steps of the cell cycle different than mitosis. During interphase, cellular organelles increase in number, specific DNA replicates, and protein synthesis transpires. The chromosomes are not apparent and the DNA seems as uncoiled chromatin. If the DNA was not replicated at the cell would not have the number of required materials to distribute.
