Multiple Choice

Which is true of asexual reproduction but NOT sexual reproduction?

• New cells are formed

• New cells are all identical

• DNA replicated before reproduction

• Cytokinesis occurs

Multiple Choice

Which is NOT a function of cell division?

• reproduction in single celled organisms

• growth

• repair and healing

• reduce the amount of DNA in cells

Multiple Choice

One main difference between the chromosomes in prokaryotes and eukaryotes is prokaryotic chromosomes are usually circular.

• True

• Telophase

Multiple Choice

Which stage of mitosis do the chromosomes line up on the center/equator of the cell?

• prophase

• metaphase

• anaphase

• telophase

Multiple Choice

How is cytokinesis different in plant cells and animal cells?

• plants form a cell plate

• plants have twice as much DNA

• plant cells just pinch in to two cells
