A cell normally spends at least 90 percent of the cycle in interphase. So interphase is the longest.

What is the longest stage of the cell cycle?
Interphase is the longest phase in the cell cycle, because, in that phase, the cell needs to grow, duplicate and replicate chromatin and other parts, and prepare itself for the mitotic phases. Interphase has three stages, G1, S, and G2.
Describe the salient features of each mitotic stage?
Mitosis consists of four main stages: Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telephase
Factors affecting cell radiosensitivity?
The greatest radiation effects will occur in cells having the 1) least maturity 2) least specialization 3) most mitotic activity, and 4) longest mitotic phase. ...so 1. Maturity of the cell 2. Specialization of the cell 3. Mitotic activity of the cell 4. Mitotic phase of the cell ( I am a radiology student, all this information came from my text book :) )
What is the least common stage of mitosis?
interphaseProphase is the longest stage of mitosis,lasting about 20 mnInterphase is the longest phaseprophase is the longest of the four phases in mitosisMetaphase is the longest phase of mitosis.During metaphase the tension applied during the mitotic spindle fibres align all of the chromosomes along the metaphase plate ( an imaginary line that divides the cell into two).This organization is necessary to ensure that the next phase when the chromosomes are separated each new nucleus will receive one copy of each chromosome.
What does a cell do in the third stage of the cell cycle?
he mitotic cell cycle is as follows:Gap 1SynthesisGap 2MitosisCytokinesisMitosis is the process by which the original cell (parent cell) divides to create an exact copy of the original cell (daughter cell). The mitotic cell cycle is composed of 5 stages that allow the cell to produce a "clone" of the original cell. The cell cycle proceeds as follows: Gap 1, Synthesis, Gap 2, Mitosis, and Cytokinesis. The first grouping of stages known as interphase, contains the first 3 of the 5 cell cycle stages.
Which is the longest of the mitotic stages?
Metaphase, never believe it is prophase, totally wrong..

What is the order of these mitotic stages?
1.) fertilization of egg by sperm 2.) mitotic cell division of zygote 3.) differentiation of cells into tissues 4.) organ development
What are the stages of the eucaryotic cell cycle?
Interphase Growth I Synthesis Growth II Mitotic phase, including cytokinesis.
What is the role of the spindle during mitosis?
It provides a "scaffolding" for the attachment and movements of the chromosomes during the later mitotic stages.
Growth of the zygote and other stages of an animal's life happens by mitotic cell division?
zygote always undergoes mitotic division and all other vegitative cells undergo mitosis meiosis takes place in sex cells

Mitosis consists of four main stages: Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telephase
What process of cell division take longer in humans then bacterial cells?
The process of Meosis I i.e. a mitotic division in meosis which do not take place in bacteria is longer and in that mitotic division prophase is the longest part and is even longer then bacterial prophase

The two main stages of cell division are?
mitosis, cytokinesisInterphase and Mitotic phase1.Prophase which is where the nuclear membrane dissolves. 2.Telophase which is where two new nucli form.
