In which phase does the cell spend most of it's life?

• Interphase
• Nuclear Division
• Telophase
• Mitosis

Why do we need meiosis?

• To double the number of chromosomes going into sex cells
• To halve the number of chromosomes going into sex cells
• To triple the number of chromosomes going into sex cells
• To not change the number of chromosomes going into sex cells

During what stage does the G₁, S and G₂ phases happen?

• Interphase
• M phase
• Mitosis
• Cytokinesis

During what phase of the cell cycle is DNA replicated?

• G1 phase
• S phase
• G2 phase
• M phase

Why would it be important to replicate DNA before a cell divides in mitosis or meiosis?

• In order for genetic information to be transferred into daughter cells.
• In order for the cell to be able to increase in size.
• In order for the DNA to be contained in the nucleus.
• In order for the cell to re-order the DNA sequencing in the new cells.
