(i)
phase represents the phase when actual cell division occurs and interphase represents the phase between two successive
phases.
(ii) In the 24 hours average duration of cell cycle of a human cell, cell division proper lasts for only about an hour.
(iii)
phase constitutes more than
of the duration of cell cycle.
(iv)
phase starts with the nuclear division and ends with cytoplasmic division.

The M Phase represents the phase when the actual cell division or mitosis occurs and the interphase represents the phase between two successive
phases. It is significant to note that in the 24 hour average duration of cell cycle of a human cell, cell division proper lasts for only about an hour. The interphase lasts more than
of the duration of cell cycle. The M Phase starts with the nuclear division, corresponding to the separation of daughter chromosomes (karyokinesis) and usually ends with division of cytoplasm (cytokinesis).
