To create a new life, a sperm cell must fertilize an egg cell, which typically involves the fusion of one sperm with one egg. The egg cell itself contains about 50% of the genetic material (from the mother), while the sperm contributes the other 50% (from the father). Thus, it can be said that 100% of the genetic material from both the egg and sperm is necessary to create a new life.

What percentage of a cell life is spent in prophase?

About 90% of mitosis is spent in prophase, however, mitosis is only 8% of the total cell life. Thus, a cell spends about 7% of it's life in prophase. The cell spends most of it's life in Interphase. Interphase is 90% of the cell's TOTAL life span.To answer your question, the cell spends about 7% of it's life in prophase.
