Without O2 is only going through GLYCOLYSIS producing 2atp and lactic acid as a by product
Answer:
The largest part of the cell cycle is the interphase. Some 80-90% of the life of a cell is spent inter phasically. This is the time for a cell to grow and prepare for cell breakdown.
Explanation:
The cell prepares for cell division, also for interphase (which includes mitosis and cytokinesis). The cell grows larger until its starting point has doubled in size. The first stage, called the G1 phase, takes place.
The S phase is the next phase of the interface. The cell's DNA is copied this time. There are two DNA sets so that each daughter cell can receive one copy.
The final part of the intersection is the G2 phase. The cell is about to grow. All organelles like the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi device will be doubled.
The interface is when the cell grows and produces sufficient matter to be divided into two cells. Before mitosis can start, the interphase must be completed.
Lots of hand waving as is in the current field of much of molecular biology. Other than that experiments and observations. Basically the utilization of the scientific method and then trying to find the mechanism by which something occurs through even more research/experimentation.
