Molecular Biology
The S phase, or synthesis phase, is a crucial part of the cell cycle during which DNA replication occurs. During this phase, the genetic material of the cell is duplicated to ensure that each daughter cell receives an identical copy of the genome after cell division. This phase is essential for both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, as it sets the foundation for accurate cell division and genetic continuity.
congrats on reading the definition of S Phase. now let's actually learn it.
