Mitosis
B
The Cell Cycle
C
Translocation
D
Transcription
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -During the S phase of the cell cycle, DNA replication occurs at the interphase . There are four stages in the cell cycle i.e. G1, S, G2, and M. DNA replicates before actual cell division so that identical set of the genome of the parent cell is received by each daughter cell.

Detailed explanation-2: -Before mitosis occurs, a cell’s DNA is replicated. This is necessary so that each daughter cell will have a complete copy of the genetic material from the parent cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -In both mitosis and meiosis the replication of DNA and chromosomes occurs at the same stage.
