mitosis, only
B
meiosis, only
C
both mitosis and meiosis
D
neither mitosis nor meiosis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -DNA replication occurs in both mitosis and meiosis. In meiosis, the cell undergoes two divisions, i.e. meiosis I and II. Meiosis I is reduction division and meiosis II is similar to mitosis but DNA replicates only once during meiosis, i.e. before meiosis I in S phase.

Detailed explanation-2: -The division cycle of most eukaryotic cells is divided into four discrete phases: M, G1, S, and G2. M phase (mitosis) is usually followed by cytokinesis. S phase is the period during which DNA replication occurs.
