Welcome to the PF.

What is the context of your question? Is it for schoolwork?

berkeman, i got the answer, now I am just confused on why and how protein synthesis may occur in the S phase. My teacher was explaining how protein synthesis and DNA replication may both occur at the same time, but I kind of forgot hearing why and how....

How and why is it that protein synthesis may occur at the same time as DNA replication in the cell; in the S phase.?

I know this is true for sure because I heard my teacher say so; however, I forgot hearing her saying why and how...
So If someone may please explain, I'd really appreciate it :D

What makes you think that this cannot happen? Remember that DNA is not directly involved in the translation process.
