Question
Chapter 15, Problem 5TY
Summary Introduction
Introduction: The process of replication takes place in the S phase of the eukaryotic cell cycle. Replication of chromatids results in the formation of a replicated chromosome. The chromatids are separated during the process of the mitotic cell cycle after the completion of replication in the S phase of the cell cycle.
