At what stage of the cell cycle are histone proteins synthesized in a eukaryotic cell? (a) During G 2 stage of prophase (b) During Sphase (c) During entire prophase (d) During telophase
Option B During S phase or synthetic phase the replication of DNA takes place. For replication of DNA histone proteins are required so they are also synthesized during this phase. It takes about 30% 50% of the total cell cycle. Prophase and telophase are stages involved in mitosis or meiosis. During G 2 phase division of centrioles, mitochondria and chloroplasts occurs.
