DNA replication occurs during _________________ of the cell cycle.

DNA replication occurs during _________________ of the cell cycle. Correct Answer S phase

DNA replication occurs during the synthesis (S) phase of the cycle. During this phase additional histones are also synthesized that will be needed as the cell doubles the number of nucleosomes in its chromosomes.
