Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Bacteria lack a cell nucleus . Due to their primitive nature they lack a well marked S- phase . In bacteria DNA replication occurs before fission. Concept Enhancer : Bacteria cell cycle is divided into the B,C and D periods . The B period extends from the end of cell division to the beginning of DNA replication .DNA relication occurs during the C period . the D period refers to the stage between the enf of DNA replication and the division of bacterial cell into daughter cells.
