Want this question answered?
In both mitosis and meiosis DNA replication only occurs once, during Interphase and Interphase 1, for mitosis and meiosis, respectively.
Yes, certain cells such as your brain and skeletal muscle cells stop cell division at or around the time of birth and are arrested in a phase of interphase called G0where they no longer divide.
They replicate before meiosis begins, as it is the division phase. The chromosomes duplicate during interphase which is right before the beginning of meiosis. After going through meiosis I the chromosomes DO NOT duplicate nor do they cross over they simply continue on. Hope this helps. :)
Interphase
During Mitosis, it isn't the nucleus itself that divides it is the chromatin inside the nucleus that duplicates during Prophase. This is so the new cells being created each have the correct amount of DNA for normal cell use.Because the nucleus is like the center of the cell. It tells the cell what to do and basically controls it.-6th grade science teacher

Mitosis is the process of separating chromosomes in its cell nucleus into two identical sets in two nuclei within eukaryotic cells. As for when it takes place, I believe it starts after the G2(second gap) stage of Interphase ends.

Interphase
Although it varies depending on a cell (some cells never undergo mitosis), a typical cell goes through mitosis when all its organelles have been replicated, its size doubled, and its DNA copied. When all this is finished, the cell condenses its DNA and begins prophase, the first phase of mitosis.A typical cell is in mitosis only about 10% of the times, because the rest of 90% the cell is in interphase, where it goes through normal cell functions instead of dividing.

Most of the cells you view be in interphase at all times. This is because that is the normal resting phase that cells will assume most of the time.
Interphase is important in the cell cycle because it allows the cell to grow and develop into a mature cell before it is able to reproduce. Think of Interphase as a human's childhood. Before a child is grown and old enough to reproduce, they have to grow up first. It's the same way for a cell.
I think into two in mitosis and into four in meiosis. Hope this helps.
