DNA replication occurs during the S stage of interphase. Interphase is the stage between two mitotic or meiotic divisions. It can be slpit into three stages:G1, S and G2. During G1 (gap 1), cells grow and build up ATP on preparation for DNA replication. During the S (synthesis) phase the DNA is replicated. During the G2 phase the cell prepares itself for the process of cell division (mitosis or meiosis). See: http://www.emc.maricopa.edu/faculty/farabee/BIOBK/BioBookmito.html
S phase
Chromosomes are replicated during DNA replication, which occurs during interphase.
During the S (synthesis) stage - after G1 and before G2.
Interphase
The S in the cell cycle means synthesis and refers to the synthesis of DNA in the process of DNA replication. Please refer to the Related Links for an excellent website on cells.
The two major events that occur during the mitotic phase of the cell cycle are the alignment of the chromosomes in the middle of the cell and the separation of replicated chromosomes or sister chromatids.
The chromosomes are replicated during interphase.
Chromosomes replicate when DNA replicates during the S phase (synthesis) of of the cell cycle.
G2 phase
Metaphase
Chromosomes are replicated during DNA replication, which occurs during interphase.
During the S (synthesis) stage - after G1 and before G2.

Interphase. Cells spend the majority of the time in interphase, where they grow and perform their life functions.
This is the phase in which DNA is replicated.
