Cellular Division Test Review

Match the term with the correct statement.  

• Cytokinesis

• Splitting the cytoplasm to create two daughter cells.

• Sister chromatids

• The phase that carries out routine functions as it grows and makes proteins and organelles.

• cell plate

• Two identical chromosomes that are created before cell division.

• Centromere

• A new cell wall that develops between the nuclei of plant cells in Telophase.

• Gap 1 (G1) phase

• The point at which two sister chromatids are attached.

Before cells can divide, what happens to the DNA?

• It is replicated

• It increases in size

• It is divided in half

• It decreases in size

What happens in prophase of mitosis?

• The chromosomes become visible; nucleus disappear; spindles form

• The chromosomes align in the middle of the cell

• The sister chromatids separate

• The chromosomes uncoil into chromatin; nucleus reappears; spindles disappear

What happens in cytokinesis?

• The chromosomes become visible; nucleus disappears; spindles form

• The chromosomes align in the middle of the cell

• The DNA is duplicated

• The cytoplasm divides into two new daughter cells
