when is dna replicated during the cell cycle
DNA replication occurs during the S stage of interphase. Interphase is the stage between two mitotic or meiotic divisions. It can be slpit into three stages:G1, S and G2. During G1 (gap 1), cells grow and build up ATP on preparation for DNA replication. During the S (synthesis) phase the DNA is replicated. During the G2 phase the cell prepares itself for the process of cell division (mitosis or meiosis). See: http://www.emc.maricopa ....
