Multiple Choice

Mitosis makes cells that have a specific purpose in the human body. For example: If your bones break Mitosis will make sure that you are getting more bone cells.

• the shape

• function of cell

• 60%

• 45%

Multiple Choice

What is the name of the place where the chromosomes align in Metaphase

• equator

• middle of cell duh

• metaphase plate

• furrow

Steps of Cell Cycle

• Interphase

• Mitosis(Prophase, Anaphase, Metaphase, Telophase)

• Cytokinesis(cell eventually splits in two)

Multiple Choice

Genetic Variations means that the offspring will be identical looking to their parents?

• True

• False

Poll

Which has the biggest advantage when talking about reproduction and survival of organisms?

• Sexual Reproduction

• Asexual Reproduction

Multiple Choice

The biggest difference between Mitosis and Meiosis is that one specializes in creation of Body Cells while the other specializes in the creation of Gametes in order to create a genetical diverse population of individuals that are related. My question is why is it important to have genetic variation in a species?

• It has little importance to have genetic variation in a species organisms that produce asexually have been alive for millions of years and are doing just fine without it.

• Genetic Variation ensures survival of the species.

• Genetics Variation ensures that vital genetic codes are passed down in the DNA which can ensure survival based on their instincts.
