Answer 1

Synthesis phase in the cell cycle is called so, because of the synthesis of more DNA.

Explanation:

The synthesis phase, commonly referred to as the S phase, is an interval during interphase dedicated entirely to DNA replication. During this specific window, the cell creates an identical and complete copy of its genomic material to prepare for eventual division. In contrast, the manufacturing of structural proteins and necessary RNA molecules happens mainly during the surrounding growth gaps, known as the G₁ and G₂ phases.
