Solution

The correct option is D S phase
Interphase has a long duration and during this phase the cell prepares to divide by undergoing cell growth and DNA replication. Interphase is further divided into $G_{1}$ , S and G $_{2}$ phases.
DNA replication (duplication of DNA) occurs during the S phase of the cell cycle. The total content of DNA doubles and gets equally distributed in the daughter cells after cell division.
