When does DNA replication occur?
When does DNA replication occur?
The stage of interphase where DNA is replicated, ensuring each daughter cell receives a complete copy.
Which phase of mitosis separates sister chromatids?
Which phase of mitosis separates sister chromatids?
During this phase, sister chromatids are pulled apart by spindle fibers towards opposite poles of the cell.

Study Notes
Cell Division Phases
- DNA synthesis occurs during the S phase of interphase.
Mitosis
- Movement of chromosomes to opposite poles occurs during anaphase.
Meiosis
- Meiosis occurs in reproductive cells.
Meiosis I
- The main outcome of the first division in meiosis is the reduction of the number of chromosomes by half.
Mitosis in Animal Cells
- The prominent feature in animal cells during telophase of mitosis is the presence of a cleavage furrow.
