The most accurate response is:

**In order for genetic information to be transferred into daughter cells.**

This is important because during mitosis, the cell divides to produce two daughter cells that each need a complete set of genetic information. Replicating DNA ensures that each daughter cell receives an identical copy of the original cell's DNA.
