However, what happens if the cell doesn't actually want to divide? What happens if the conditions are not favorable or if the requirements have not been met? In this case the cell exits the G One phase and it exits Interphase entirely and it enters a completely different phase known as the G Not phase which is the resting phase of the cell cycle. Now some cells spend very little time in the resting phase, in the genot phase because they need to continually divide and some examples include skin cells, intestinal cells as well as stomach cells. On the other hand, other cells that spend their entire lifetime in the genot phase. Basically that means that our cells do not actually divide.
