When an organism reproduces asexually, it usually has

only one parent, and the same chromosome number as the parent

only one parent, and half as much DNA as the parent

two parents, and twice as much DNA as either parent

two parents, and the same chromosome number as each parent

The diagram below represents division of a cell that produces two daughter cells. Which statement most likely describes the daughter cells produced?

The daughter cells will each produce offspring that will have the same genetic information as the original cell.

The daughter cells will pass on only half of the genetic information they received from the original cell.

The daughter cells will each undergo the same mutations as the original cell after reproduction has occurred.

The daughter cells will not pass on any of the genes that they received from the original cell.

The diagram below represents a microscopic structure observed during cell division. Which parts of the structure are indicated by arrows A and B , respectively?

homologous chromosome and spindle fiber

The process of mitotic cell division normally results in the production of

two cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell

four cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell

two cells with only one chromosome from each set of homologous chromosomes

one cell with a replicated set of homologous chromosomes

Asexual reproduction of diploid organisms normally results in new organisms that contain cells with

more chromosomes than are found in the cells of the parent

fewer chromosomes than are found in the cells of the parent

The diagram below represents cellular growth that can occur in human skin after prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light.

Uncontrolled mitotic division occurred as a result of gene mutations.

Manipulation of genes caused the movement of embryonic skin cells.

Exposure to light stimulated the development of cells containing ozone.

An immune reaction triggered the formation of excess blood cells.

The presence of a cancerous mass in the lung is a direct result of

the uncontrolled division and growth of abnormal cells

prolonged exposure to very dry air

the introduction of toxins through breaks in the skin

meiotic division of normal cells

Some variation must be present in a population in order for natural selection to take place. These variations arise from mutations in the DNA and

sorting of chromosomes during sexual reproduction

combining of chromosomes during organ development

changing of chromosomes during cloning

removal of chromosomes during selective breeding

Which sequence represents the correct order of processes that result in the formation and development of an embryo?

meiosis →fertilization →mitosis

mitosis →fertilization →meiosis

fertilization →meiosis →mitosis

fertilization →mitosis →meiosis

Which best explains the mechanism that allows for cell differentiation?

Different genes are activated and produce specialized cells.

Cells use all the genes coded in their DNA.

Different fertilized cells fuse, producing specialized cells.

Each cell has different DNA, and this allows for cell specialization
