Eukaryotic cell division consists of interphase and cell division. Explain what happens in the three parts of interphase (G1, S, and G2)

What will be an ideal response?


In the S stage, DNA synthesis occurs. Chromosomes duplicate, and sister chromatids are formed. The part prior to S is G1, in which cell growth occurs. DNA synthesis is followed by G2, in which the cell further grows, now with double chromatid chromosomes in its nucleus.
