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.

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.

Hailey is comparing and contrasting various forms of cellular reproduction, and she focuses her research on meiosis. Meiosis is important for sexual reproduction because it gives sex cells (gametes) what unique feature?

They contain only half the genetic material of the parent.

They are able to exist outside of the organism.

They are smaller than all other cells in the body.

They have a very short life span.

Sexual and asexual reproduction allow for transfer of genetic material to offspring. Which of the following is true regarding how mitosis differs from meiosis?

Mitosis produces genetically identical cells; meiosis does not.

Mitosis is cell reproduction for animals; meiosis is cell reproduction for plants.

Meiosis is a form of asexual reproduction; mitosis is a form of sexual reproduction.

Meiosis produces genetically identical cells; mitosis does not.

Mitosis is responsible for creating what cells in organisms?

Only sex cells, known as gametes

All cells in sexually reproducing plants

Mitosis and budding are similar because both have what characteristic?

In both, the genetic material comes from a single parent.

Both processes are components of sexual reproduction

The offspring produced by both are genetically diverse

Both processes are more common in animals than in plants.

Meiosis is responsible for creating what cells in organisms?

Only sex cells, known as gametes

All cells in sexually reproducing plants

Cytokinesis is a process that occurs during the cell cycle. During cytokinesis,

the cytoplasm is divided to form two separate cells.

the cell grows and performs normal life processes.

the chromosomes of the cell are duplicated.

the nuclear material of the cell is divided.
