Solution

The stage between two successive cell divisions in which no division of chromosomes or cytoplasm occurs is called Interphase.

Here are the steps of the cell cycle:

  1. Interphase: This is the phase between two cell divisions. During this phase, the cell grows, duplicates its DNA, and prepares for cell division. Interphase is further divided into three phases: G1 (first gap), S (synthesis of DNA), and G2 (second gap).

  2. Prophase: This is the first stage of cell division. The chromosomes condense and become visible, the nuclear envelope breaks down, and the spindle apparatus forms at opposite poles of the cell.

  3. Metaphase: The chromosomes align at the equatorial plate and are held in place by the spindle fibers.

  4. Anaphase: The sister chromatids separate and move towards the opposite poles of the cell.

  5. Telophase: A new nuclear envelope forms around each set of chromosomes, the chromosomes decondense and the spindle fibers disintegrate.

  6. Cytokinesis: The cytoplasm divides, resulting in two daughter cells each with a complete set of chromosomes and its own nucleus.

So, the stage between two successive cell divisions where no division of chromosomes or cytoplasm occurs is the Interphase.
