2.5.3 State that interphase is an active period in the life of a cell when many metabolic reactions occur, including protein synthesis, DNA replication and an increase in the number of mitochondria and/or chloroplasts. During interphase the cell grows larger.
The growth phase of the cell cycle is called interphase. DNA replicates itself during interphase and thus is critical to the formation of two daughter nuclei. The process of replication which results in identical offspring is called mitosis, while variation in the offspring results from meiosis. The basic features of mitosis and meiosis are discussed in your text book.
