To add a number of years, months and/or days, use the DATE function. Note: the DATE function accepts three arguments: year, month and day. Excel knows that 6 + 2 = 8 = August has 31 days and rolls over to the next month (23 August + 9 days = 1 September).
Letâs multiply the percentage of cells in each stage by one-thousand, four-hundred and forty minutes to calculate how long the cell spends in each stage. We find that in a 24-hour period, the cells we observed spend 1000.2 minutes in interphase, 180 minutes in prophase, 128.2 minutes in metaphase, 77.8 minutes in anaphase, and 51.8 minutes in telophase.
Interphase is where the cell is when it is preparing for cell division. Therefore the purpose of interphase is to prepare the cell for division. During interphase, the celâ¦l goes through three stages; the G1, S Phase and G2. This is the longest part of the cycle.
