MITOSIS AND MEIOSIS

1. Which cellular stage determine if a cell is prokaryotic?

• anaphase

• interphase

• metaphase

• prophase

2. Which of the following is NOT true about chromosomes?

• it is found in the nucleolus

• it carries the genetic material

• it is present at interphase

• it is composed of sister chromatids

3. Which is NOT true about interphase?

• it takes up most of the cell's lifespan

• it is characterized by the presence of all the organelles

• it carries an enlarged nucleus with observable chromosomes

• it is the time when the metabolic processes of the cell are carried out

4. Which of the following happens exclusively in meiosis?

• the nucleolus disappears

• the chromosomes cross over

• the nuclear membrane disintegrates

• the chromosomes appear to be long and thin

5. What happens to the chromosomes at anaphase?

• they appear long and thin

• become short and thick

• gather in the middle

• split and separate

6. In which stage of cell division does cleavage stage occur to signal the formation of daughter cells?

• anaphase

• interphase

• metaphase

• telophase

7. What happens to the chromosomes at metaphase?

• they appear long and thin

• they become short and thick

• they gather in the middle

• they split and separate

8. Which of the following is present in the prophase?

• lysosome

• golgi apparatus

• nucleolus

• vacuole

9. Which of the following shows the role of spindle fibers?

• pulling of centrioles apart

• separation of the sister chromatids

• disintegration of nuclear membrane

• shortening and thickening of chromosomes
