Detailed explanation-1: -Interphase is the longest part of the cell cycle. This is when the cell grows and copies its DNA before moving into mitosis. During mitosis, chromosomes will align, separate, and move into new daughter cells. The prefix inter-means between, so interphase takes place between one mitotic (M) phase and the next.

Detailed explanation-2: -Interphase is the longest phase of the cell cycle. It includes 3 subphases (G1, S-phase or Synthesis, and G2), and these three phases make up most of the cell’s time. Of the three subphases, G1 is the longest phase.

Detailed explanation-3: -It is significant to note that 24 hours is the average duration of the human cell cycle. Out of those 24 hours, the Mitotic phase is the shortest phase that lasts for only about an hour. The interphase lasts more than 95% of the duration of the cell cycle.
