Biology EOC Review Set 10

Front

What is the main difference between plant and animal cells during cell division?

Back

Plant cells develop a cell plate, while animal cells develop a cleavage furrow.

Front

List the correct sequence of the stages of mitosis.

Back

The correct sequence is 2-1-4-3.

Front

What is the primary purpose of DNA replication?

Back

To copy genetic information.

Front

When does an ion require active transport to cross the cell membrane?

Back

When the ion is going against the concentration gradient.

Front

What happens to a cell placed in a saline solution with a higher salt concentration than inside the cell?

Back

Water molecules will move until the salt concentration is the same inside and outside of the cell.

Front

Define mitosis.

Back

Mitosis is the process of cell division that results in two genetically identical daughter cells.

Front

What is the role of the cell plate in plant cells?

Back

The cell plate forms during cytokinesis to separate the two daughter cells.

Front

Explain the term 'cleavage furrow' in animal cells.

Back

A cleavage furrow is the indentation that begins the process of cytokinesis in animal cells.

Front

What is the significance of the concentration gradient in cellular transport?

Back

The concentration gradient determines the direction of ion movement across the cell membrane.

Front

What are the stages of mitosis?

Back

The stages of mitosis are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
