Detailed explanation-1: -The interphase is the period when the cell is in a non-dividing state and this can be in different stages: the first gap (G1) between the last mitosis and the S phase (phase of DNA synthesis) and the second gap (G2) between the completion of the S phase and the next mitosis (M).
Detailed explanation-2: -G1 is followed by S phase (synthesis), during which DNA replication takes place. The completion of DNA synthesis is followed by the G2 phase (gap 2), during which cell growth continues and proteins are synthesized in preparation for mitosis.
Detailed explanation-3: -Interphase is composed of G1 phase (cell growth), followed by S phase (DNA synthesis), followed by G2 phase (cell growth).
Detailed explanation-4: -The G1 phase, gap 1 phase, or growth 1 phase, is the first of four phases of the cell cycle that takes place in eukaryotic cell division. In this part of interphase, the cell synthesizes mRNA and proteins in preparation for subsequent steps leading to mitosis.
Detailed explanation-5: -There are three stages of interphase: G1 (first gap), S (synthesis of new DNA ), and G2 (second gap). Cells spend most of their lives in interphase, specifically in the S phase where genetic material must be copied.
