What is the percentage of duration of cell cycle that interphase lasts for in the 24 hour average duration of cell cycle of a human cell?

Step-by-step solution

The M Phase represents the phase when the actual cell division or mitosis occurs and the interphase represents the phase between two successive M phases.It is significant to note that in the 24 hour average duration of cell cycle of a human cell, cell division proper lasts for only about an hour. The interphase lasts more than 95% of the duration of cell cycle. The M Phase starts with the nuclear division, corresponding to the separation of daughter chromosomes (karyokinesis) and usually ends with division of cytop
