Question

If cells does not grow in Interphase, what will be the effect on cell division.

Answer 1

Interphase:

The cell cycle controls the growth and division of cells. It includes growth phase I, synthesis phase, growth phase II and mitosis. The two growth phases and the synthesis phase of the cell cycle are often referred to as interphase of mitosis. During the first growth phase, cells experience high metabolic activity and grow in size. In the presence of certain growth factors, cells progress to the next phase of the cell cycle, during which the DNA is replicated, resulting in two sets of DNA. After DNA replication is complete, cells undergo another period of growth, and in the presence of appropriate growth factors, the cells begin the phases of mitosis.

If the cell is not grown in the interphase, cells cannot synthesize proteins needed for mitosis. So the process of mitosis cannot be carried in the cells.
