Cell Division Process

What is the purpose of mitosis?

• To ensure the proper distribution of genetic material to daughter cells during cell division.

• To produce gametes for sexual reproduction.

• To regulate cell growth and development.

• To repair damaged tissues.

Which phase of the cell cycle does mitosis occur?

• G2 phase

• S phase

• G1 phase

• M phase

What are the stages of mitosis in order?

• interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase

• prophase, metaphase, telophase, anaphase

• telophase, anaphase, metaphase, prophase

• prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase

During which stage of mitosis do the chromosomes line up at the center of the cell?

• prophase

• anaphase

• telophase

• metaphase

What is cytokinesis?

• The process of dividing the nucleus of a cell into two daughter cells after mitosis or meiosis.

• The process of fusing two daughter cells into one cell after mitosis or meiosis.

• The process of replicating the DNA of a cell during mitosis or meiosis.

• The process of dividing the cytoplasm of a cell into two daughter cells after mitosis or meiosis.

In animal cells, how does cytokinesis occur?

• Through the formation of a cleavage furrow

• Through the formation of a cell plate

• Through the formation of a contractile ring

• Through the formation of a cell wall

What is the result of mitosis and cytokinesis?

• One identical daughter cell

• Three identical daughter cells

• Two identical daughter cells

• No daughter cells

What is the purpose of cytokinesis?

• To divide the cytoplasm and separate daughter cells

• To replicate DNA

• To form the cell membrane

• To produce energy for the cell

What is the role of the spindle fibers in mitosis?

• Spindle fibers separate the chromosomes during mitosis.

• Spindle fibers help to condense the chromosomes during mitosis.

• Spindle fibers assist in the formation of the nuclear envelope during mitosis.

• Spindle fibers aid in the replication of DNA during mitosis.

What happens to the nuclear envelope during mitosis?

• The nuclear envelope breaks down and disappears.

• The nuclear envelope remains intact and unchanged.

• The nuclear envelope divides into two separate membranes.

• The nuclear envelope becomes thicker and more rigid.
