Cell and Cell Cycle

What is Interphase?

• structure that holds the sister chromatids together.

• the phase of the cell cycle in which the nucleus and its contents divide.

• the phase in which the cytoplasm and its contents divide.

• the period during the cell cycle of a cell’s growth and development.

Where does the cell spend most of its life?

• prophase

• anaphase

• interphase

• telophase

Interphase is followed by a shorter phase of the cell cycle called ____________.
