The whole cell cycle is divided into 4 phases: (1) G1 phase = growth period, (2) S phase = synthesis of the DNA, (3) G2 phase = correct errors and prepare to divide, and (4) Mitosis. Synthesis phase is very critical because this is the stage where the whole DNA molecule is duplicated by the process of replication. G1 is the shortest period of all stages.

What does DNA replication make?

DNA replication produces a copy of the DNA. At the same time the cell in which the DNA is to be found splits into two with a copy of the DNA in each. DNA replication is caused by cell replication during the process of mitosis.


What part of the cell cycle does the DNA make a copy of itself?

interphase


Why might a cell make make lots of rRNA but only one copy of DNA?

Because it only needs one copy of it's DNA as backup, whilst RNA is needed for the cell to function

You take the DNA and copy it, then let it grow up I guess

Why does a cell make a copy of its DNA defore it divides?

Because each cell needs its own set of DNA, there must be two sets of DNA present in a cell before it divides into two.


When is DNA duplicated and why is DNA duplicated?

DNA is duplicated during the S phase of the cell cycle, prior to cell division. DNA is duplicated to ensure that each new cell receives an exact copy of the genetic information, allowing for the accurate transmission of genetic material to the daughter cells.


Why does a cell make a copy of the DNA?

So then the cell can split the replicated DNA into to nuclei and then form two separate cells, each with their own nucleus and own set of DNA.
