Explanation

• The cell cycle is the sequence of stages a cell goes through to grow and divide.
• DNA synthesis (replication) occurs during the S Phase (Synthesis Phase).

Additional information:

1. G₁ Phase – cell growth before DNA replication
2. G₂ Phase – preparation for cell division after DNA replication
3. M Phase – actual mitosis/cell division

Explanation

The formula to calculate max electrons in an orbit is 2n², where n = orbit number.

1. 1st orbit (n = 1): 2 × 1² = 2 electrons
2. 2nd orbit (n = 2): 2 × 2² = 8 electrons
3. For the 3rd orbit (n = 3): 2 × 3² = 18 electrons
