Within eukaryotes, DNA replication is controlled within the context of the cell cycle. As the cell grows and divides, it progresses through stages in the cell cycle; DNA replication takes place during the S phase (synthesis phase).
DNA Replication, which takes place during interphase of the cell cycle, is the process that makes growth possible. DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic Acid, which is so named for its five-carbon deoxyribose sugar and nucleic acid.
