When cells divide, the new cells produced must have a full set of genes in order to function correctly. Genes are made of DNA so it is necessary to replicate (copy) the DNA before the cell divides.
DNA is replicated in the S phase of Interphase
DNA is replicated during the S phase of the cell cycle before both mitosis and meiosis.
DNA is replicated during the S phase of the cell cycle. This phase is when the cell synthesizes a copy of its DNA to prepare for cell division.
The phases of DNA replication are initiation, where the DNA double helix is unwound and the replication bubble is formed, elongation, where new nucleotides are added to the growing DNA strands, and termination, where replication is completed and the newly synthesized DNA strands are proofread for accuracy.
The enzyme that cuts out the RNA primer on the replicated DNA molecule and replaces it with the appropriate DNA nucleotides is DNA polymerase I in prokaryotes and DNA polymerase delta in eukaryotes. This process, known as primer removal or primer excision, is essential for completing DNA replication accurately.
What is DNA replicated before?
interphase
Yes
Interphase is when DNA replication occurs. :)
DNA is replicated in the S phase of Interphase
DNA is replicated during the S phase of the cell cycle before both mitosis and meiosis.
DNA polymerase replicated DNA. RNA polymerase creates mRNA to be used in protein synthesis. RNA polymerase does not replicated DNA.
in the nucleus
The DNA replicated
S phase
DNA is replicated during the S phase of the cell cycle. This phase is when the cell synthesizes a copy of its DNA to prepare for cell division.
DNA is replicated during the S phase of the cell cycle, which occurs before cell division. The precise timing of DNA replication can vary depending on the cell type and the specific stage of development.
