• A
• B
• C
• D

Multiple Choice

What is the longest stage of the cell cycle called?

• Cytokinesis
• M phase
• Interphase
• G1 Phase

Multiple Choice

During interphase

• DNA lines up in the middle of the cell and DNA attaches to spindle fibers

• 2 new nuclei form

• 2 new identical cells are created

• DNA gets copied

Multiple Choice

what does the M stand for in the Cell Cycle

• Meiosis

• Mitosis

• Multicellular

Multiple Choice

In the S stage of interphase....

• The cell grows
• The nucleus divides
• The cell membrane divides
• The DNA is replicated

Multiple Choice

What is the end result of mitosis?

• 2 identical body cells

• 2 gametes

• 2 zygotes

• 2 different body cells

Multiple Choice

What are chromosomes?

• They attach to the DNA and pull it to the sides

• They contain mitochondria

• They contain ribosomes

• DNA packaged into threadlike structures

Multiple Choice

Cytokinesis is a phase of mitosis. 

• True
• False 

Multiple Choice

What is cytokinesis?

• This is when two cells merge together to make one giant cell.
• The stage where chromosomes migrate to the opposite ends of the cell. 
• The stage of the cell cycle where the rest of the cell divides after mitosis is complete.
• The stage in which DNA condenses into chromosomes.

Multiple Choice

When cells go through mitosis repeatedly without entering interphase, this results

• arthritis

• cancer

• mutation

• diabetes

Multiple Choice

Interphase is where cells...

• spend most of their time and where DNA is replicated

• cytokinesis happens

• chromosomes line up in the middle

• cell division
