Question

DNA replication occurs during the S phase of the cell cycle

A as the nuclear envelope breaks down in early mitosis
B during mitosis but not during meiosis
C in animal cells but not in plant cells
D only in cells destined to become gametes

Answer 1

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Cell division separates a cell into two pieces that are both fresh cells that completely function. And, for each new daughter cell that develops as a consequence of the separation, the cells will need a whole replacement of DNA before it can occur. This renders DNA to make copy of itself, a step before cells split in a process known as replication during interphase.

C in animal cells but not in plant cells.

Centrioles help organize cell division. Centrioles are not present in the centrosomes of many eukaryotic species, such as plants and most fungi.
