Interphase is the longest stage of the cell cycle, where the cell grows, duplicates its organelles and DNA, and prepares for cell division.
It's divided into three subphases:
* G1 phase: The cell grows and synthesizes proteins and organelles.
* S phase: The cell replicates its DNA.
* G2 phase: The cell continues to grow and prepares for mitosis or meiosis.
After interphase, the cell enters the M phase, which includes mitosis or meiosis, where the cell divides into two or four daughter cells.
