The correct answer is 'S-phase'.
Explicación
## Step 1In eukaryotic cells, DNA replication occurs during the S phase (synthesis phase) of the cell cycle. The cell cycle is a series of events that cells go through as they divide and grow. It consists of four main phases: G1, S, G2, and M.## Step 2The S phase is the part of the cell cycle where DNA is replicated. This phase follows the G1 phase and precedes the G2 phase. During the S phase, each chromosome is replicated to produce two identical copies, which are called sister chromatids.## Step 3The M phase (mitosis) is when the cell divides its DNA and cytoplasm to produce two daughter cells. This G2 phase and precedes the G1 phase.## Step 4Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle where the cell grows and replicates its DNA. It includes the G1, S, and G2 phases.## Step 5The G2 phase is the part of interphase where the cell prepares for mitosis. It follows the S phase and precedes the M phase.
