Why do you think it is important for a cell to grow before it replicates its DNA? Be as specific as you can in your answer

Basically, every time a cell undergoes mitosis (one kind of cell division), various enzymes work to split each DNA strand in half, and then replace the missing half on the separated strands with corresponding nucleotides, leaving you with two identical strands. When the entirety of a cell's genome is copied (along with all the organelles), the cell can split into two daughter cells.

Imagine slicing yourself down the middle and splitting yourself in half, and then using each half of you as a template to recreate the other half.

That's the biology behind it, but the bottom line is that DNA is replicated in order to reproduce itself.
