About this resource

This quiz focuses on mitosis and the cell cycle, fundamental concepts in cell biology appropriate for 7th grade middle school students. The questions systematically assess students' understanding of the sequential phases of cell division, including interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis. Students need to master the specific events that occur during each phase, such as chromosome replication during interphase, nuclear membrane dissolution and chromosome alignment during metaphase, and chromatid separation during anaphase. The quiz requires students to identify phases based on visual descriptions, understand the terminology associated with cell division (including the proper term "daughter cells"), and recognize the temporal sequence of mitotic events. Students must also distinguish between mitosis proper and the broader cell cycle, understanding that interphase is the longest phase but is not technically part of mitosis itself. This quiz was created by a classroom teacher who designed it for students studying 7th grade cell biology. This assessment serves as an excellent formative evaluation tool to gauge student comprehension of mitotic phases before moving on to more advanced topics in cell reproduction. Teachers can effectively use this quiz as a warm-up activity to activate prior knowledge, as guided practice during instruction, or as homework reinforcement following lessons on cell division. The format works particularly well for review sessions before unit tests, allowing students to self-assess their mastery of phase identification and sequencing. This quiz directly supports learning objectives aligned with middle school life science standards, specifically those addressing cell division processes such as MS-LS1-2, which focuses on developing and using models to describe how genetic factors determine organism traits through protein synthesis and cellular reproduction.
