Question:
In which stage of cell cycle, DNA replication occurs:
In which stage of cell cycle, DNA replication occurs:
Updated On: Jul 20, 2024
\(G_1-phase\)
\(S-phase\)
\(G_2-phase\)
\(M-phase\)
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
DNA replication occurs in the S-phase of the cell cycle. This is when DNA is synthesized to ensure that each daughter cell receives a complete set of genetic information.
So, the correct option is (B): S-phase
