• 10

• 20

• 40

• 80

At which phase of the cell cycle do centrosomes begin to move apart in animal cells?

• anaphase

• metaphase

• telophase

• prophase

• Interphase

• Prometaphase

• Metaphase

• anaphase

The first phase in the cell cycle (G1) corresponds to _________.

• The phase between DNA replication and the M phase

In binary fission how does the DNA of the daughter cells compare to the DNA of the parent cell?

• It is only half of the amount of DNA found in the parent.

• It is identical.

• It has some similarities and some differences.

• It is a mix of the parent's DNA.

Cell division occurs to allow for 

• Growth
• Reproduction
• Repair
• All of the above
