Question

DNA makes a copy of itself in_________.

  1. Prophase
  2. Anaphase
  3. Interphase
  4. Telophase

Hint:

This phase is also called S phase.

The correct answer is: Interphase


    • Cell cycle consists of S phase and M phase, with gap phases in between
    • S phase is also called interphase
    • During S phase, the genetic material or DNA replicates, making a copy of itself
    • The number of chromosomes is doubled during interphase
    • Following S phase, the mitosis occurs, where the cell divides and the chromosomes are split between the two daughter cells produced
