D. The more often a phase appears, the longer it takes for that phase to occur. According to the data, metaphase appeared the fewest number of times; so, compared to the other phases, metaphase took the least amount of time to occur. Interphase took the most time, but not longer than all other phases combined (according to the data presented).
