Intro - Unit 5 Cellular Reproduction Review

Unicellular organisms use the cell cycle to:

• develop

• heal

• reproduce

• all of the above

• none of the above

During which part of the cell cycle is DNA replicated?

• interphase

• mitosis

• cytokinesis

Which part of the cell cycle is divided into prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase?

• interphase

• mitosis

• cytokinesis

The regular sequence of growth and division that cells undergo is known as the

• cellular respiration

• photosynthesis

• replication

• cell cycle

What happens at the end of interphase?

• the cell splits into 2 identical cells

• the cell's nucleus divides

• the DNA unwinds

• the cell is preparing for mitosis

Simon looks at an image of a slide and notices that all of the chromosomes are lined up in along the middle of the cell. He is likely looking at a cell that is in

• prophase

• metaphase

• anaphase

• telophase

Which statement best describes chromosomes?

• They carry out cellular respiration

• They consist of the pigment chlorophyll

• Their structure is only visible during interphase

• They consist of tightly coiled strands of DNA and proteins

What is different between how plant and animal cells use the cell cycle?

• Plant cells use the cell cycle for energy, while animal cells use the cell cycle for sugar.

• Plant cells are able to complete the cell cycle without using O2, but animals can not.

• Plant cells create a cell plate since they are very rigid.

• Animal cells create a cell plate since they are very flexible.

Why is it so important to replicate DNA?

• so that each daughter cell is unique

• to release energy

• to make sure that the daughter cells are genetically identical to the parent cells

• all of the above

During which phase of mitosis does cytokinesis begin?

• prophase

• metaphase

• anaphase

• telophase
