Cell Cycle and Cell Division

Which is NOT a stage of the cell cycle?

• G1

• S phase

• G2

• photosynthesis

What is a chromosome?

• A type of cell
• A part of the brain
• A DNA molecule with part or all of the genetic material of an organism
• A type of bacteria

What happens during cytokinesis?

• The cell's DNA is replicated
• The cell's nucleus divides
• The cell's cytoplasm divides
• The cell's mitochondria multiply

What happens during interphase?

• Cell division occurs
• Protein synthesis occurs
• Cell prepares for division
• Cell undergoes apoptosis

What is cell division?

• The process of splitting a cell into two
• The process of creating energy within a cell
• The process of cell death
• The process of cell movement

What is DNA replication?

• The process of producing two identical replicas from one original DNA molecule
• The process of creating a DNA molecule from a RNA molecule
• The process of creating a protein from a DNA molecule
• The process of creating a RNA molecule from a DNA molecule

What is mitosis?

• A type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus, typical of ordinary tissue growth
• A process of nuclear division in eukaryotic cells
• A type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells
• The process by which a less specialized cell becomes a more specialized cell type

What is a diploid cell?

• A cell with half the number of chromosomes
• A cell with a single set of chromosomes
• A cell with two complete sets of chromosomes
• A cell with four sets of chromosomes

What is a haploid cell?

• A cell with half the number of chromosomes
• A cell with double the number of chromosomes
• A cell with no chromosomes
• A cell with the same number of chromosomes

What is meiosis?

• A process of cell division that results in two genetically identical daughter cells
• A process of cell division that results in four genetically different daughter cells
• A type of cellular respiration
• A type of photosynthesis
