    Glossary S phase

    period when DNA replication occurs in the cell cycle

    The S phase, or Synthesis phase, is a part of the cell cycle where DNA replication occurs. During this phase, the cell's genetic material is duplicated, ensuring that each new cell will have an identical set of chromosomes. This is crucial for cell division and is tightly regulated to prevent errors that could lead to conditions like cancer.
