Question

differentiate between the major phases of cell cycle, i.e. interphase and division

Answer 1

Answer:

Interphase is the time between cell divisions during which growth and preparation for division occurs. ... Interphase is the longest part of the cell cycle; cell division is only a small part. S phase is the longest phase of interphase and G2 phase is the shortest of the three phases of interphase.

Answer 2

Answer:

Interphase is the time between cell divisions during which growth and preparation for division occurs. Interphase is the longest part of the cell cycle; cell division is only a small part. S phase is the longest phase of interphase and G2 phase is the shortest of the three phases of interphase.

Explanation:

During interphase, the cell grows and DNA is replicated. During the mitotic phase, the replicated DNA and cytoplasmic contents are separated, and the cell divides.
