During mitosis, chromosomal DNA duplication takes place in Correct Answer Interphase

During mitosis, chromosomal DNA duplication takes place in Interphase.
During interphase, the cell grows and the nuclear DNA is duplicated. The interphase is followed by the mitotic phase.
During the mitotic phase, the duplicated chromosomes are segregated and distributed into daughter nuclei. The cytoplasm is usually divided as well, resulting in two daughter cells.
