PHASES OF
CELL CYCLE

INTERPHASE
• Called resting phase • Actual cell division phas
• Cell is preparing for division by undergoing •Starts with nuclear divisi
both cell growth & DNA replication in an orderly manner. usually ends with divisio
• It lasts more than 95% of the duration of cell cycle (cytokinesis)
