Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Cells spend 90% of their time in this stage of the cell cycle. This is the reason you would see most cells in this stage if viewed under a microscope.
A
Prophase
B
Metaphase
C
Anaphase
D
Interphase
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A typical cell spends the majority of its time in interphase, which is the phase of the cell cycle. The metabolic or “everyday life” phase of the cell is known as the interphase, during which the cell develops, replicates its DNA in order to be ready for mitosis, and does other “typical” cell operations.

Detailed explanation-2: -During interphase, the cell undergoes normal growth processes while also preparing for cell division. It is the longest phase of the cell cycle, cell spends approximately 90% of its time in this phase.

Detailed explanation-3: -Interphase is the longest phase of the cell cycle. During this phase the cell grows to its maximum size, performs its normal cellular functions, replicates its DNA, and prepares for cell division.

Detailed explanation-4: -Together, the G1, S, and G2 phases constitute the interphase or the portion of the cell cycle that takes place between mitotic phases. Interphase is by far the longest portion of the cell cycle, representing about 90% of the cell’s total lifecycle.
