Which of the following correctly describes the function of mitosis and meiosis?

Mitosis-growth & repair Meiosis- making gametes for sexual reproduction

Mitosis-making gametes for sexual reproduction Meiosis-growth & repair

Mitosis-creates new individuals in asexual reproduction Meiosis-creates cells that regulate the cell cycle

Mitosis-creates cells that regulate cell cycle Meiosis-creates new individuals in asexual reproduction

When a cell with half the normal number of chromosomes is generated during meiosis, how can it eventually produce cells with the normal number of chromosomes?

by combining with a gamete from another organism

by forming two nuclei during cell division

by undergoing the six phases of mitosis

by releasing young normal cells through exocytosis

Which list shows the phrases of mitosis in the correct order?

prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase

prophase, anaphase, metaphase, telophase

anaphase, metaphase, prophase, telophase

anaphase, prophase, metaphase, telophase

which of the following BEST describes something that happens in both metaphase if mitosis and metaphase I and Metaphase II of Meiosis?

chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell

chromosomes separate and move away form each other to opposite poles

chromosomes split into two separate cells with new nuclei

chromosomes line up and perform crossing over

Which of the following describes a haploid cell?

haploid cells (n) contain 1 set of chromosomes. include egg & sperm

Haploid cells (2n) contain 2 sets of chromosomes. include all body cells

Haploid cells (n) contain 2 sets of chromosomes. includes all body cells.

Haploid cells (2n) contain 1 set of chromosomes, include egg & sperm

When crossing over takes place, chromosomes

exchange corresponding segments of DNA

exchange corresponding protein pieces

the chromosome number is reduced by half

the chromosome number is doubled

two identical cells are produced

the chromosome number stays the same

series of events that cells go through as they grow & divide

period of time between the birth & death of a cell

time from prophase until cytokinesis

time is takes for one cell to undergo mitosis

Which of the following BEST describes something that happens in both anaphase of mitosis, as well as anaphase I & anaphase II in meiosis?

chromosomes separate & move away from each other to opposite poles

chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell

chromosomes split into two separate cells with new nuclei

chromosomes line up and perform crossing over

What is the role of the spindle in cell division?

connects the two sister chromatids

helps the cell replicate its DNA

What is the major difference between plants & animals in cytokinesis?

plants form a cell plate & animals form a cleavage furrow

plants have centrioles to organize the spindle, animals don't.

plants form a cleavage furrow & animals form a cell plate

plants have spindles to help separate the chromosomes, animals don't

rapidly dividing cells at an injury

How do cells that result from telophase II differ from the cells that result in telophase I?

Telophase I results in 2 haploid cells. Telophase II results in 4 haploid cells

Telophase I results in 2 diploid cells. Telophase II results in 4 diploid cells.

Telophase I results in 2 diploid cells. Telophase II results in 4 haploid cells.

Telophase I results in 2 haploid cells. Telophase II results in 4 diploid cells.

Why must a cell undergo replication before cell division in mitosis?

so that each new cell gets a complete set of DNA

so that each cell will get smaller

so that each cell gets half the amount of DNA

so that each cell will get bigger
