Please choose the 2 main phases of the cell cycle.

• Middle Phase

• Interphase

• Mitosis

• Endophase

Which main phase of the cell cycle lasts longer?

• interphase

• mitosis

Please choose the 3 main phases of interphase.

• G1

• S

• G2

• P

What happens during the G1 phase of interphase?

• The cell grows and double its amount of organelles

• The sister chromatids line up in the middle of the cell.

• The cell copies its genetic material.

What happens during the S phase of interphase?

• The cell grows quickly.

• The cell copies its DNA (stored in chromosomes)

• The sister chromatids are pulled apart.

Why is mitosis called cell division?

• because one cell divides into two cells

• because cells are good at long division

• because the number of cells are divided in half
