Front (Question)

It refers to the type of cell division that produces two genetically identical cells.

Back (Answer)

mitosis

Front (Question)

TRUE or FALSE: In multicellular eukaryotes, mitosis enables development, growth, and repair.

Back (Answer)

True

Front (Question)

TRUE or FALSE: The number of chromosomes each daughter cell receives in mitosis is similar to that of the parent.

Back (Answer)

True

Front (Question)

TRUE or FALSE: Cell division occurs only in certain parts of organisms.

Back (Answer)

True

Front (Question)

Which plant cells are active in cell division?

Back (Answer)

cells in the tips of shoots and roots

Front (Question)

TRUE or FALSE: Cell division in animals is best observed during embryonic development.

Back (Answer)

True

Front (Question)

It refers to the non-dividing phase of the cell cycle.

Back (Answer)

interphase

Front (Question)

Give the 3 parts of interphase.

Back (Answer)

• G1-phase • S-phase • G2-phase

Front (Question)

TRUE or FALSE: The nuclear genetic material doubles during the S-phase but the number of chromosomes remains the same.

Back (Answer)

True

#10

Front (Question)

It refers to the dividing phase of the cell cycle.

Back (Answer)

M-phase

#11

Front (Question)

Which processes are under the M-phase?

Back (Answer)

mitosis and cytokinesis

#12

Front (Question)

It refers to the nuclear division in which equal number of monad chromosomes are distributed to the daughter nuclei.

Back (Answer)

mitosis

#13

Front (Question)

It refers to the process of partitioning the cytoplasm to form two daughter cells.

Back (Answer)

cytokinesis

#14

Front (Question)

Which stage of cell division is characterized by an apparent nucleus?

Back (Answer)

interphase

#15

Front (Question)

Which stage of cell division is characterized by uncoiled and indistinguishable chromosomes?

Back (Answer)

interphase

#16

Front (Question)

Which stage of mitosis is characterized by disappearing nucleoli and nuclear membrane?

Back (Answer)

prophase

#17

Front (Question)

Which stage of mitosis is characterized by condensing chromatin fibers of chromosomes?

Back (Answer)

prophase

#18

Front (Question)

Which stage of mitosis is characterized by the attachment of chromosomes into spindle fibers and alignment at the middle of the cell?

Back (Answer)

metaphase

#19

Front (Question)

Which stage of mitosis is characterized by the complete disintegration of the nuclear envelope?

Back (Answer)

metaphase

#20

Front (Question)

Which stage of mitosis is characterized by completely condensed dyad chromosomes?

Back (Answer)

metaphase

#21

Front (Question)

Which stage of mitosis is characterized by the separation of sister chromatids towards the opposite poles of the cell.

Back (Answer)

anaphase

#22

Front (Question)

Which fibers facilitate the movement of chromosomes in mitosis?

Back (Answer)

spindle fibers

#23

Front (Question)

Which stage of mitosis is characterized by the uncoiling of chromosomes into chromatic and the reformation of the nuclear envelope.

Back (Answer)

telophase

#24

Front (Question)

TRUE or FALSE: By the time the nuclei have formed in telophase, cytokinesis has already started.

Back (Answer)

True
