  1. Interphase
  2. Mitotic phase (M phase)

The interphase, also known as the resting phase, constitutes nearly 95% of the entire cell cycle process. It is the process where a cell prepares itself completely through cell growth, DNA replication, etc. before it could undergo the actual cell division process. Interphase is further divided into three stages, ...
