Meiosis Quiz

In which phase does the nuclear envelope break up?

• Prophase II
• Prophase I
• Anaphase I
• Telophase I

In which phase do the duplicated chromosomes align in the middle between the spindles?

• Anaphase II
• Telophase I
• Anaphase I
• Metaphase II

True or False: Anaphase l is when all of the chromosomes separate and begin to head toward the spindle poles?

• True
• False

True or False: Meiosis II results in two haploid nuclei.

• True
• False

In which phase does a nuclear envelope two haploid nuclei? Answer: Telophase IA complete set of chromosomes cluster at the both ends of the cell, a new envelope forms around each set. Which phase is this?

• Cytokinesis II
• Interphase II
• Telophase II
• Anaphase I

A complete set of chromosomes cluster at the both ends of the cell, a new envelope forms around each set. Which phase is this?

• Telophase I
• Anaphase II
• Anaphase II
• Telophase II

Definition of meiosis- pick the correct one:

• is a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus, typical of ordinary tissue growth.
• is a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells.

How many times does a cell go through interphase in meiosis?

• Once
• Twice
• Three times
• Four times

How many phases are there in meiosis?

• 10
• 8
• 12
• 15

Meiosis is important because…

• it ensures that all produced organisms have the correct number of chromosomes
• is important because it is essential for growth and repair in the body.
