Radiobiology
The S phase, or synthesis phase, is a crucial part of the cell cycle where DNA replication occurs. During this phase, each chromosome is replicated to ensure that two identical sets of chromosomes are available for each daughter cell after cell division. Understanding the S phase is essential for grasping the overall cell cycle dynamics, how cells respond to damage, and the timing of therapeutic interventions in radiation therapy.
congrats on reading the definition of S Phase. now let's actually learn it.
