ANSWER
There are 4 phases of the cell cycle, namely G
1
phase, S phase, G
2
phase and M phase. During G
1
phase or gap 1 phase, the cell increases in size. Also, various proteins are synthesized in this phase. During S phase or synthesis phase, the DNA replication takes place. During G
2
phase, cell continues to grow until it enters the M phase or mitosis phase. Cell division takes place in M phase.
Thus, the correct answer is 'S phase.'
