Question

multiple choice 1 point in which stage does the cell spend most of its life? interphase prophase metaphase anaphase telophase cytokinesis

Explanation:

The cell cycle is divided into interphase and mitotic (M) phase. Interphase includes G1, S, and G2 stages, where the cell grows, carries out normal functions, and replicates its DNA. This stage accounts for roughly 90% of the total cell cycle duration, far longer than the mitotic stages (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase) and cytokinesis.

Answer:

A. interphase
