The length of interphase (phases of mitotic division of a cell) can vary from organism to organism and cell to cell.
Interphase includes a few stages:
G1: this is the longest phase of the cycle. It follows the mitotic division, and is the part where new cells have the chance to start to growing. Proteins are created by the cell so that DNA can be replicated. Usually takes about 10 hours.
S: the length of this phase is unique to the quantity of DNA in that specific cell. This is where chromosomes and DNA are replicated and doubled. It usually takes between 5 and 6 hours to complete.
G2: this phase includes the first stage of mitosis. This is where most of the proteins needed for mitosis are created. It's the shortest of the three and usually takes between 3-4 hours.
So in total, the entire interphase will last anywhere from 18-20 hours.
ATP is how cells store energy. These storage molecules are produced in the mitochondria, tiny organelles found in eukaryotic cells sometimes called the “powerhouse” of the cell.
Over time, those who cannot live through the temperature differences/have undesirable qualities will die off. Overtime, those with desirable qualities are left and they will continue the population.
