Putting a very complicated process into a few simple words, the cell cycle is called so because an eukaryotic cell cannot divide into two, the two into four, etc. unless two processes alternate:
- doubling of its genome (DNA) in S phase (synthesis phase) of the cell cycle;
- halving of that genome during mitosis (M phase).
The period between M and S is called Gap (G) 1; that between S and M is G2.
So, the cell cycle consists of:
- G1 = growth and preparation of the chromosomes for replication;
- S = synthesis of DNA (or DNA Replication) and duplication of the centrosome;
- G2 = preparation for
- M = mitosis.
When a cell is in any phase of the cell cycle other than mitosis, it is often said to be in interphase.

In the S phase of the cell cycle the cell?
Synthesis. The replication of the genetic material basically.
What is the correct order of events in the cell cycle?
The Sequence events of the cell cycle isinterphaseprophasemetaphaseanaphasetelophase.
How is replication a part of the cell cycle?
It is the main purpose of the cell cycle, to replicate the cell. the DNA is replicated, along with everything else, to form a new identical cell.
Is the lythic cycle of viral infection replication and cell destruction true?
yes
Where is most of the cell's activity directed toward during the G2 phase of the cell cycle?
DNA replication
When during a cell cycle does Replication occur?
The stage of the cell cycle, replication occurs is meosis The stage of the cell cycle, replication occurs is meosis The stage of the cell cycle, replication occurs is meosis The stage of the cell cycle, replication occurs is meosisDNA replication occurs during the S phase of interphase.
What is The Cycle Of Viral Infection Replication and Cell Destruction?
Lysogenic Cycle.
What is the stage of the cell cycle when replication ocurr's?
interphase.
When does replication happens?
DNA. replication takes place in S phase of cell cycle in interphase before cell division .
What is the portion of the cell cycle during which replication occurs?
interphase
Replication of DNA is performed when?
during the interphsase of the cell cycle.
What happens in s1 phase of the cell cycle?
DNA replication
What phase of the cell cycle is DNA replication?
yoo mamam
Does cell growth and replication continue through the cell cycle?
No. Cell growth and DNA replication occur during interphase but do not occur during mitosis and cytokinesis.
In the S phase of the cell cycle the cell?
Synthesis. The replication of the genetic material basically.
What stage of the cell cycle where the cell is preparing to begin DNA replication?
G1 of interphase
How are lytic cycle and lysogenic cycle similar?
both virus attaches to host cell, viral replication cycle
