Question

The S phase in the cell cycle is the      A. synthesis phase, when DNA is replicated. B. spindle phase, when chromatids are pulled apart. C. sync phase, when the new cell synchronizes with other cells. D. split phase, when the cell reproduces into two

Answer 1

The S phase in the cell cycle is the SYNTHESIS PHASE WHEN DNA IS REPLICATED. The correct option is A.
In the cell cycle, the S phase is the stage at which the DNA is replicated. The S phase is located between the G1 and the G2 phases. Very accurate DNA replication is very important in order to conserve the genetic information in the DNA.
