G1

A phase in the cell cycle during interphase, preceding DNA synthesis (S phase), where the cell grows and prepares for DNA replication.

S Phase

The phase of the cell cycle in which DNA is replicated, occurring between G1 phase and G2 phase.

Sister Chromatids

Identical copies of a chromosome connected by a centromere, formed during DNA replication.
