Detailed explanation-1: -During interphase, the cell grows and makes a copy of its DNA. During the mitotic (M) phase, the cell separates its DNA into two sets and divides its cytoplasm, forming two new cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -During interphase, the cell grows and the nuclear DNA is duplicated. Interphase is followed by the mitotic phase. During the mitotic phase, the duplicated chromosomes are segregated and distributed into daughter nuclei.

Detailed explanation-3: -Interphase. Interphase is the process of the cell cycle in which the cell carries out its ordinary functions, and is when the chromosomes replicate.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cells begin the interphase with a period of rapid growth. During G1, a cell grows and performs its normal function. During S, the cell copies its DNA, during G2, the cell grows and stores energy to use in the mitotic stage.

Detailed explanation-5: -Answer and Explanation: The stage of the cell cycle where the cell performs most of its daily functions is the interphase. All the cellular activities take place in this phase only. The cell gets its nourishment, development and also performs the common physiological functions during this phase.
