About this resource

This quiz comprehensively covers cell growth, division, and differentiation for high school biology students at the 9th-12th grade level. The questions assess fundamental concepts including the relationship between cell surface area and volume, the cell cycle phases (G1, S, G2, and M), mitosis stages (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase), and the molecular mechanisms that control cellular reproduction. Students must understand the mathematical principles governing cell size limitations, distinguish between asexual and sexual reproduction in various organisms, and analyze the structure and function of chromosomes, including DNA packaging with histone proteins. The quiz also explores advanced topics such as cell differentiation, stem cell biology (comparing embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells), cancer biology including the role of p53 protein and apoptosis, and developmental biology using model organisms like C. elegans and Drosophila. Students need strong analytical skills to interpret diagrams, compare cellular processes, and evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of different reproductive strategies based on environmental conditions. Created by Lori Murphy, a Biology teacher in the US who teaches grades 9-12. This comprehensive review quiz serves multiple instructional purposes throughout the cell biology unit, functioning effectively as a summative assessment tool, homework assignment for reinforcing complex concepts, or structured review session before major examinations. Teachers can utilize individual question sets for targeted warmup activities focusing on specific topics like mitosis phases or stem cell applications, while the complete quiz provides thorough formative assessment data on student understanding of cellular processes. The varied question formats, including multiple choice, classification, and diagram interpretation, support differentiated learning styles and help students prepare for standardized biology assessments. This quiz aligns with Next Generation Science Standards HS-LS1-4 (modeling cell division and differentiation) and HS-LS1-5 (environmental factors affecting gene expression), while also supporting Common Core mathematical practices through surface area to volume ratio calculations and data analysis components.

Paramecium is a single-celled protozoan. The graph shows a typical growth curve for a colony of Paramecium. Two Paramecium cells sometimes engage in a sexual process in which genetic materials are exchanged, but no new cells are produced. Which additional observation would provides the strongest evidence that Paramecium reproduces asexually?

The colony begins decreasing in number after Day 14.

The cells in the colony are genetically different from one another.

The cells in the colony become smaller over time.

The cells in the colony are genetically identical.
