Interphase is not really a resting place. During interphase a cell is undergoing sythesis and mitosis. The chromosomes are copied and cells double in size.

Which stage of mitosis is called resting stage?

It's interphase, though ironically, the cell is actually quite busy during this phase trying to perform its normal functions. It is called the resting phase because it is "resting" from cell division.


Together, the G1 phase, S phase, and G2 phase are called?

Interphase and its is also the longest phase for the cell cycle.


Why will most of the cells you view be in interphase?

Most cells spend the majority of their time in interphase because this is when they carry out normal functions such as growth, metabolism, and preparing for cell division. Interphase is a crucial phase in the cell cycle where cells carry out their day-to-day activities before they divide.


During which phase of interphase does DNA replicate?

DNA replicates during the S phase of interphase.


Is Interphase is the resting and growth phase before mitosis?

Interphase is not actually a resting phase. It is just called so because the chromosomes are not seen at this phase because they are in chromatin form(invisible) but actually in Interphase the cell undergoes intense chemical activity. Interphase has 3 stages: G1: All organelles are synthesized except mitochondria and chloroplast, cell has high metabolic rate. S: DNA replication occurs. Protein molecules called histones are synthesized n cover DNA. The cell is 4n at this stage. G2: Mitochondria and chloroplast are synthesized and energy store of cell increases. And yes INTERPHASE occurs first and then mitosis or meosis can occur

What phase of the cell cycle is typically the longest?

Interphase: The cell is resting and getting ready to duplicate.


The cell cycle is broken into what two steps?

M-phase and interphase M-phase and interphase M-phase and interphase M-phase and interphase


What is another name for the resting phase in the cell cycle?

I believe that the stage you are referring to is interphase.However, it is incorrect to refer to it as a resting phase. This is because interphase is a period of intense metabolic activity. For example, DNA replication occurs, the cell physically increases in size and new organelles are synthesised that were lost in the previous division.


Longest part of cell's life cycle?

The longest stage is the resting phase or the interphase which occur between cell divisions.


Is interphase considered as resting stage?

No, interphase is not considered a resting stage. It is a phase in the cell cycle where the cell prepares for cell division by growing, replicating its DNA, and carrying out normal cellular functions. The cell is actively synthesizing proteins and preparing for mitosis.


What phase does DNA synthesis occur?

S-phase of interphase

The cell cycle is divided as to interphase and?

The cell cycle is divided into interphase and mitosis/ meiosis.
