Cell Cycle Basics

Which part of the Cell Cycle takes the longest?

• Interphase
• Mitosis
• Prophase
• Cytokinesis

Put the following actions in order: DNA replicates, cell grows, cell divides, cell prepares for mitosis. 

• DNA replicates, cell grows, cell prepares for mitosis, cell divides
• cell grows, cell prepares for mitosis, DNA replicates, cell divides
• cell grows, DNA replicates, cell prepares for mitosis, cell divides
• DNA replicates, cell prepares for mitosis, cell grows, cell divides

In which stage of the cell cycle does the cell grow in size?

• G1

• S

• G2

• Mitosis

In which stage of the cell cycle does the DNA replicate?

• G1

• S

• G2

• Mitosis

During which stage of the cell cycle does mitosis and cytokinesis occur?

• Interphase
• S phase
• M phase
• G1 phase

In mitosis, the two resulting cells are

• different from the starting cell and identical to each other.
• different from the starting cell and different from each other.
• identical to the starting cell and different from each other.
• identical to the starting cell and identical to each other.

Where does a cell contain it's genetic material?

• nucleus
• nucleolus
• cytoskeleton
• golgi

Cells of organism must replicate for ?

• repair of damaged tissue

• replacement of dying cells.

• All of the above

The division of the nucleus is known as:

• Synthesis
• Mitosis
• G1
• G2
