Not all cells divide at the same rate, but that difference is only in the length of the interphase which can vary by up to years for some tissues. It is just that prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase are much less variable as the process has to complete (not stable stuck in the middle of dividing, see Larson).
The cell spends the most time in interphase preparing to divide. It is during interphase that it increases the number of organelles and size so that when it splits, both daughter cells have enough organelles to function
it splits once the cell becomes so large that getting materials to the corresponding part of the cell uses more energy than the cell is making.People often misconcept prophase as the longest stage because it has many phases but then interphase has the longest duration.By Dr Takudzwa Chimhanda & Professor Denzel Muchazorega.
Cells only have a finite amount of DNA. While mitosis only takes a few hours, the two daughter cells only have half the DNA of their parent cell. The reason why interphase takes so long is because, in order for cells to undertake another round of mitosis, they need the amount of genes that were present in the original parent cell. Cells use interphase to replicate its DNA until it has enough DNA to create two daughter cells, a time-sensitive process.
I assume you mean mitosis. Interphase is the stage where the cell is not replicating at all. It is sometimes called the 'resting phase'. It is the longest because the cells do not replicate constantly. They spend most of their time in this non-reproductive stage performing their metabolic duties, so interphase marks the time between one mitotic stage and the next.
growing and duplicating chromosomes in preparation for division
Interphase lasts longer than mitosis because it is the phase between cell divisions when the cell grows before it goes thorough mitosis again.
im pretty sure its 12-24 hours in mamilian tissue at least
The cell spends most of its time in the Interphase.
The phases of the cell cycle that interphase includes are G1, S and G2. This is the phase when cells spend most of their time.
Most of the cells you view be in interphase at all times. This is because that is the normal resting phase that cells will assume most of the time.
Cells spend most of their time in interphase. Individual chromosomes cannot be distinguished in the nucleus of the cell, they are working harder to duplicate chromosomes before they undergo cell division and enter prophase. It is a longer process than the rest of the cycles.
Skin cells actually spend most of their time in the interphase stage. This is because cells spend their time preparing for cell division in this stage.

Interphase, due to the fact that it is preparing its self for cell division.
The cell spends most of its time in the Interphase.
The phases of the cell cycle that interphase includes are G1, S and G2. This is the phase when cells spend most of their time.
Interphase, which is the first stage in the cell cycle
the animal cell spend most of its life in the interphase. :) (learned it in science!!)
Interphase (78% of the time is spent in this process)
Most of the cells you view be in interphase at all times. This is because that is the normal resting phase that cells will assume most of the time.
If you are referring to the stages of life cycle for cells it would be in Interphase which is the stage in which most cells spend the majority of their time.
Assuming you are referring to stages of the cell cycle, cells spend the majority (around half) of their time in interphase.
Cells spend most of their time in interphase. Individual chromosomes cannot be distinguished in the nucleus of the cell, they are working harder to duplicate chromosomes before they undergo cell division and enter prophase. It is a longer process than the rest of the cycles.
