1.	What is the importance of chromosomes replication during interphase?
Answer» Chromosome duplication\xa0is essential so that each daughter cell receives equal number of\xa0chromosomes\xa0from the parent cell. Hence, it is vital to generate an exact copy of the parent cell.\xa0The S phase of a cell cycle occurs\xa0during interphase, before mitosis or meiosis, and is responsible for the synthesis or\xa0replication\xa0of\xa0DNA.\xa0In\xa0this way, the genetic material of a cell is doubled before it enters mitosis or meiosis, allowing there to be enough\xa0DNA\xa0to be split into daughter cells.
