DNA replication does NOT occur during interphase
Cell division happens during interphase
All cells in interphase eventually go through cell division
Cells do NOT grow in interphase
Most cells in your body are in interphase
DNA replication does NOT occur during interphase
Explanation / Answer
Most cells in your body are in interphase ----------> TRUE
The interval between each division is called interphase. The process of mitosis together with interphase constitutes the cell cycle.
Interphase is subdivided into three phases, namely the G1 (gap-one), S (synthesis), G2 (gap-two) phases. During G1 phase, normal cellular functions and cell growth take place, during S phase, synthesis of DNA and replication of the same occurs. This is followed by G2 phase, during which there is more cytoplasmic growth and preparation for cell division. DNA synthesis does not occur during both G1and G2 phases.
