Mitosis

Which of the following is true of mitosis in a diploid cell?

• It results in 2 haploid daughter cells

• It involves replication of the cell's DNA

• It results in daughter cells who are genetically identical, but physically smaller, than the original cell

• Bill Gates has way more money than all the employees and students at GRCC combined

At what phase in the cell cycle does DNA replication occur?

• G1.

• S

• G0

• M

Which of the following is NOT correct?

• Mitosis is produces genetically identical cells.

• Cytokinesis is a part of mitosis

• Metaphase occurs before anaphase.

• All somatic cells are produced by mitosis.

What is the function of centrioles?

• To cause cytokinesis via the concentric shortening of microtubules.

• They are required for DNA replication.

• They are the structure which hold the 2 daughter chromatids together at the centromere.

• They produce microtubules for the chromosomes to migrate along as they move to opposite poles of the cell.

Which answer gives the stages of mitosis in proper chronological order?

• Anaphase, prophase, metaphase, telophase.

• Metaphase, anaphase, telophase, prophase

• Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase.

• Interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase.

In prophase, the nuclear membrane disappears

• True, it occurs early in prophase.

• True, it occurs late in prophase.

• False, it is not associated with prophase.

Which of the following is correct?

• The chromosomes shorten and thicken during prophase.

• The nucleolus reappears following telophase.

• Interphase is characterized by little cellular activity, as the cell is resting to prepare for the next mitotic event.

• All of the above.

What is mitosis?

• A cell divides from one parent cell into

  two identical daughter cells

• A cell divides from one parent cell into two

  different daughter cells

• A cell divides from one parent cell into four

  different daughter cells

• A cell divides from one parent cell into four

  identical daughter cells

Which cell cycle stage is the

longest?

• Interphase

• Mitosis

• Cytokinesis

• Cell Division

Why do cells divide?

• Growing organisms need more cells

• The volume of the cell gets to large for the

  surface area of the cell

• To repair damaged cells

• All of the above
