The term "interphase" refers to the stage of the cell cycle when a cell is not actively dividing. It consists of three main phases: G1 (gap 1), S (synthesis), and G2 (gap 2). During interphase, the cell grows, duplicates its DNA, and prepares for mitosis or meiOSis. This stage is crucial for ensuring that the cell has the necessary components to successfully divide.
