One advantage of sexual reproduction is

• it is faster
• it produces more genetic variation
• it only requires 1 parent
• it produces exact copies of the parent

All of these are phases of Mitosis except

• Prophase
• Metaphase
• Telophase
• Interphase

Genetic variety occurs in meiosis because of

• crossing over
• independent assortment
• both crossing over and independent assortment
• neither crossing over or independent assortment

Cancer occurs because of a mutation in the protein that controls cell

• cyclin
• p53 gene
• growth
• differentiation

A group of cancer cells create a(n)

• mutation
• photon
• tumor
• malignancy 

Which of the following happens when a cell divides?

• It grows in volume
• It becomes more difficult for it to get rid of waste
• Each daughter cell gets a copy of its parent's DNA
• It becomes more difficult to get oxygen and nutrients

During which phase(s) are chromosomes visible?

• prophase
• prophase, metaphase
• prophase, metaphase, anaphase
• prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase

Gametes (sex cells) are a result of

• Mitosis
• Meiosis
• crossing over
• replication
