a cell, during its active division, spends most of the time in Interphase, rather G1 Phase of the cell cycle. during this phase the cell is metabolically active. The biomass increases and the cell growth occurs.
Certain cells after mitotic division enter the G0 phase. In this phase the cells are metabolically active and they spend rest of their life in this phase only.
Cell have two major phases: INTER PHASE & MITOTIC/MEOTIC PHASE
The inter phase is again divided in three phases:
GI: Post mitotic gap period
S: synthetic period
G2: premitotic gap period
THE G1 PHASE IS THE LONGEST PHASE IN CELL CYCLE It is the period between end of mitosis and start of DNA synthesis, also it is most variable in length of time. RNA and histones are synthesized in this phase. The cell become double in size and the decission to divide generally occur in this phase. Once the cell passes G1 phase and enter in S phase then cell will divided wihtout interruption. If the cell cycle has been altered in G1 phase then it will enter in Go phase.

ok no it is prophase, prophase is the longest phase of mitosis, prophase can take as much of 50 to 60% of the total time required to complete mitosos.
It spend 90% of its time in the Interphase.
A cell spends most of it's time in interphase.
in the interphase
telophase
Interphase
interphase
the animal cell spend most of its life in the interphase. :) (learned it in science!!)
G o phase
When we look at the cell cycle, we see that the genome doubles (replicates itself) during the S phase. Since the M (mitosis) phase comes after the S and G2 phases, prophase of mitosis has the maximum number of chromosomes. Here, there are two copies of the genome.
Interphase
The G phase of the cell cycle is most variable in length. It is also referred to as the G1 phase.
telophase
Interphase is the metabolic or growth phase of a cell life cycle. The cell spend most of their life in this cycle preparing for cellular division.
the animal cell spend most of its life in the interphase. :) (learned it in science!!)
G o phase
Interphase, in the G1 phase where it grows and grows!
When we look at the cell cycle, we see that the genome doubles (replicates itself) during the S phase. Since the M (mitosis) phase comes after the S and G2 phases, prophase of mitosis has the maximum number of chromosomes. Here, there are two copies of the genome.
Interphase
There are G0 (when the cell is not growing, so maybe don't include it) Interphase, subdivided into G1, S and G2 phases. G1 (the cell is getting ready for S phase) S (stuff is synthesised) G2 (the cell is getting ready for M phase) M (mitosis, subdivided into 4 phases) Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase These are followed by cytokinesis; the actual division of the cell.
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.
The G phase of the cell cycle is most variable in length. It is also referred to as the G1 phase.
Interphase, which is the first stage in the cell cycle
Most cancerous tumors are detected at advanced phase of the cell cycle.
