Question

What happens during interphase?

Answer 1

the resting phase between successive mitotic divisions of a cell, or between the first and second divisions of meiosis.

Answer 2

The stages of interphase are: G1 (Gap 1), in which the cell grows and functions normally. During this time, a high amount of protein synthesis occurs and the cell grows (to about double its original size) - more organelles are produced, the volume of cytoplasm increases and mitochondria and chloroplasts divide.

Answer 3

If the cell is not to divide again, it will enter G0

Synthesis (S), in which the cell duplicates its DNA (via semiconservative replication). This is also known as the Swanson phase.

Answer 4

G2 (Gap 2), in which the cell resumes its growth in preparation for division.

Answer 5

in addition, some cells that do not divide often or ever, enter a stage called G0 (Gap zero), which is either a stage separate from interphase or an extended G1.

Answer 6

The duration of time spent in interphase and in each stage of interphase is variable and depends on both the type of cell and the species of organism it belongs to. Most cells of adult mammals spend about 20 hours in interphase; this accounts for about 90% of the total time involved in cell division. Interphase includes G1, S, and G2 phases. Mitosis and cytokinesis, however, are separate from interphase.

Answer 7

i know all this is super confusing but its quite simple really (oxymoron)

Answer 8

lol you may even get away with writing a bunch of random letters and numbers and they'll pass you (jks)
