Mitosis/Cell Division

Cell Cycle Stage:

• Interphase

• Prophase

• Metaphase

• Anaphase

Why would it be important to replicate DNAbefore a cell divides in mitosis?

• In order for genetic information to be transferred into daughter cells.

• In order for the cell to be able to increase in size.

• In order for the DNA to be contained in the nucleus.

• In order for the cell to re-order the DNA sequencing in the new cells.

The time between cell divisions in the life cycle of the cell is called

• anaphase
• interphase
• prophase
• metaphase

Where does a cell contain its genetic material (DNA) ?

• nucleus

• nucleolus

• ribosome

• mitochondria

What is the first phase of Mitosis?

• Prophase
• Metaphase
• Anaphase
• Telophase

In which phase does the cell spend most of it's life?

• Interphase

• Prophase

• Telophase

• Mitosis

Identify the correct order of the phases of mitosis.

What phase of cell division is this?

• interphase

During which phase of cell division does the cell double in size and replicate its DNA?

• Prophase
• Telophase
• Interphase
• Metaphase

During which stage of cell division do sister chromatids line up along the center of the cell?

• Prophase
• Metaphase
• Anaphase
• Telophase
