Detailed explanation-1: -The G0 phase is a form of the resting state, or quiescence, in which cells reside until they receive appropriate signals-for example, from growth factors-stimulating them to re-enter and progress through the cell cycle.
Detailed explanation-2: -The interphase is also called as the resting phase. 90% of cell cycle is formed by interphase. Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle in which the cell spends and performs the majority of its time.
Detailed explanation-3: -The G0 phase is the phase in the cell cycle in which the cell is neither dividing nor preparing for division; hence it’s in a resting phase. The cell enters this phase after it is done dividing or duplicating (mitosis).
Detailed explanation-4: -Finally, differentiated cells are stem cells that have progressed through a differentiation program to reach a mature – terminally differentiated – state. Differentiated cells continue to stay in G0 and perform their main functions indefinitely.
