It varies, cell to cell, species to species, age to age. In round numbers, the doubling time for a bacterium like E. coli is a half hour, whereas the doubling time for a eukaryotic cell is probably more on the order of several hours. However, you really can't generalize too much here because cells tend to undergo more mitosis during development than they do in adults and some species undergo far more rapid mitosis than others. For example, mouse embryonic stem cells divide much faster than human embryonic stem cells.

When mitosis is almost complete?

When mitosis is almost complete, it is almost time for the cell to go through cytokinesis. This is where a cell divides into two identical daughter cells.

Of the four stages of mitosis which one takes the most time to complete?

The stage of mitosis that takes the longest time to complete is typically prophase. During prophase, the cell undergoes several complex changes, such as condensing its chromosomes and breaking down the nuclear membrane. These processes can be time-consuming compared to the other stages of mitosis.

A phase that takes about 50-60 percent of the total time to complete mitosis?

The phase that takes about 50-60 percent of the total time to complete mitosis is typically the interphase. Interphase is the longest phase of the cell cycle where the cell grows, carries out normal cellular functions, and duplicates its DNA in preparation for cell division.


Is cytokinesis a part of mitosis?

No, cytokinesis is the process of dividing the cytoplasm of a cell, while mitosis is the process of dividing the nucleus of a cell. Cytokinesis occurs after mitosis is complete.


When mitosis is complete how many daughter cell are there?

When mitosis is complete two diploid daughter cells are formed.
