Mitosis & Meiosis

When does DNA replication occur?

• Interphase

• Prophase

• Metaphase

• Anaphase

What is Mitosis?  

• When a parent cell produces 4 haploid daughter cells

• When a parent cell produces 2 diploid daughter cells

• The process by which the nucleus divides into town new nuclei

• The process by which the cell splits into four new daughter cells

Diploid refers to.

• The amount of chromosomes 

• Half the amount of chromosomes 

• Sister chromatids 

• 2 Daughter Cells 

Which of the following correctly describes meiosis?

• Meiosis begins with a haploid parent cell and ends with two haploid daughter cells.

• Meiosis begins with a diploid parent cell and ends with four haploid daughter cells.

• Meiosis begins with a haploid parent cell and ends with four haploid daughter cells.

• Meiosis begins with a diploid parent cell and ends with two diploid daughter cells.

Which of the following correctly describes how mitosis and meiosis are different? 

• The number of chromosomes is doubled after mitosis, while the number of chromosomes remains the same after meiosis.

• Sister chromatids separate during meiosis but not mitosis.

• DNA replication occurs prior to mitosis but not meiosis.

• Mitosis produces genetically identical daughter cells, while meiosis produces genetically unique daughter cells.

The two halves of a replicated chromosome are referred to as?

• Chromsomes

• Haploid

• Sister Chromatids

• Diploid

This Pair of structures anchors the spindle:

• Centrioles

• Chromosomes

• Chromatids

• Centromeres

Which of the following statements are true about the events of the cell cycle?

• The longest phase is the M phase.

• Not much happens during the G1 and G2 phases.

• The G1, S, and G2 phases are called the interphase.

• During cytokinesis, DNA replicates.

The main difference between meiosis and mitosis is that.

• DNA replicates during mitosis, but does not during meiosis.

• During mitosis, sister chromatids separate; they do not during meiosis.

• Mitosis makes genetically identical copies; meiosis does not.

• Mitosis increases chromosome number in each cell, while meiosis decreases it.

• None of the above

End Product is 4 Daughter Cells

• Mitosis

• Meiosis
