The four main stages of Interphase are Gap 0, Gap 1, S phase and Gap 2. Interphase appears to be a resting stage in cell divisions but actually many activities or processes happens at this phase. Interphase generally lasts at least 12 to 24 hours in mammalian tissue.
Humans have approximately 24,000 genes, but fruit flies are not far behind, with approximately 14,000 genes.
