Solution

The correct option is C Site of replication of DNA
Cytoplasm is a jelly like substance surrounded by cell membrane that consists of various cell organelles. It is the site of many biochemical reactions that are vital and crucial for maintaining life. However replication of DNA takes place in nucleus which is separated by the cytoplasm by the nuclear envelope. Hence cytoplasm is not the site of DNA replication.
So, the correct answer is 'Site of replication of DNA'
