When a cell goes through mitosis, the daughter cells

• are genetically unique from the mother cell and each other

• are genetically identical to the mother cell and each other

• are used in sexual reproduction

• have half the number of chromosomes as the mother cell

Among the following, the term that includes the others is ___.

• interphase
• nuclear division
• mitosis
• cell cycle

The longest phase of the cell cycle 

• prophase
• interphase
• metaphase
• mitosis

Identify the phase of mitosis

The point on the chromosome where the two chromatids are held together is the

• chromosome
• chromatid

The structure of highly coiled DNA that forms in the cells nucleus prior to mitosis:

• centromere
