Answer and Explanation:
Interphase is the longest stage of the cell cycle and can be divided into 3 phases: G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase. The newly formed cell matures during the G1 phase. If the cell is going to divide, it enters the S (synthesis) phase where the DNA is replicated and the G2 phase where more growth occurs. The cells undergoing meiosis have only one interphase. After telophase I the cell enters into prophase II without having interphase II.
