DNA replication is the process of formation of daughter DNAs. And in Eukaryotes DNA replication occur in S phase.

Explanation:

there are four phases

G1 phase S phase G2 phase and M phase.

DNA replication contain three steps

Initiation = DNA helix is separated or unwinded by an enzyme helicase and two replication forks are formed. Elongation = Addition of a primer sequence. Lagging strand and leading strand formation occur. Termination = Primers are removed and sealed by DNA ligase.
