Meiosis results in ______.

4 genetically distinct haploid gametes

Trisomy is a genetic disorder that ________

has three copies of a particular chromosome

Which of these phases does not have a checkpoint?

Mitosis right before sister chromatids separate

How does mitosis in plant cells differ from mitosis in animal cells?

plant cells go through the process in reverse

plant cells go through two rounds of mitosis while animal cells just do one

What is the function of telomeres on a DNA strand?

When cell continually replicate, the DNA gets shorter so by adding telomeres to the ends of DNA, they extend the life of a cell.

They are used as a recognition site for DNA helicase to bond & begin "unzipping" the strand for replication.

They bond the Okazaki fragments together forming a continuous replication of DNA on the lagging strand.

They help untangle the DNA strand prior to DNA helicase's arrival to unzip the DNA strand, readying it for replication.

In mitosis , the two resulting cells are

identical to the starting cell and identical to each other.

different from the starting cell and identical to each other.

different from the starting cell and different from each other.

identical to the starting cell and different from each other.

Which of the following shows the correct sequence of the cell cycle?

G1->S->G2->mitosis->cytokinesis

Mitosis-> G1->S->G2->cytokinesis

S->G1-> G2-> mitosis-> cytokinesis

cytokinesis->mitosis->G1->S->G2

Which of the following explains why a cell's size is limited?

a. volume increases faster than surface area

b. surface area increases faster than volume

The chromosome of a bacterium...

occurs in multiple pairs within the cell

Which of the following happens when a cell divides?

Each daughter cell receives its own copy of the parent cell’s DNA.

It becomes more difficult for the cell to get enough oxygen and nutrients.

What is the role of the spindle during mitosis?

It helps separate the chromosomes.

It breaks down the nuclear membrane.

Which of the following is a correct statement about the events of the cell cycle?

Interphase consists of the G1, S, and G2 phases

DNA replicates during cytokinesis

Little happens during the G1 and G2 phases

The M phase is usually the longest phase

Which of the following is NOT a correct statement about the events of the cell cycle?

The cell grows during the S phase

Interphase is usually the longest phase

DNA replicates during the S phase

How do the daughter cells at the end of mitosis and cytokinesis compare with their parent cell when it was in G1 of the cell cycle?

The daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes and the same amount of DNA.

The daughter cells have half the number of chromosomes and half the amount of DNA.

The daughter cells have half the amount of cytoplasm and half the amount of DNA.

The daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes and half the amount of DNA.

The formation of a cell plate is beginning across the middle of a cell and nuclei are re-forming at opposite ends of the cell. What kind of cell is this?

a plant cell undergoing cytokinesis

an animal cell undergoing cytokinesis
