Question

In cell cycle, during interphase

• A. two daughter cells are produced
• B. the nucleus is divided into two daughter nuclei
• C. the chromosome condenses
• D. the DNA is replicated

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

In cell cycle, during interphase, the DNA is replicated. Interphase begins with $G_1$ -phase. During this phase, the cell makes a variety of proteins that are needed for DNA replication. $G_1$ -phase is followed by synthetic or S-phase. This phase is responsible for the synthesis or replication of DNA. The aim of this process is to produce double the amount of DNA, providing the basis for the chromosome sets of the daughter cells
