Interphase is divided into what three stages? What happens in each?
How much of the cell cycle is spent in interphase?
short awnser
The three stages of interphase are G1, S, and G2.
During the G1 phase, the cell grows and carries out normal cellular functions.
During the S phase, DNA replication occurs, leading to the formation of identical sister chromatids.
During the G2 phase, the cell continues to grow and prepare for cell division.
Interphase typically occupies the longest duration of the cell cycle, approximately 90% of the total cycle.
