Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Most cells would be found in interphase, which is the longest stage of the cell cycle, during which the cell grows and prepares for cell division. The chemical that halts progress through the cell cycle would likely prevent the cells from entering the more brief stages of mitosis (metaphase, anaphase, cytokinesis).
