Which of the following best describes cell division?

• It is the process in which daughter cell divides
• It is the process in which parent cell divides, giving rise to two or more daughter cells.
• It is the process in which the hereditary information in the DNA is replicated.
• It is the process in which the sister chromatids start to condense to form chromosomes.

Which of the following best describes photosynthesis?

• A process by which photosynthetic organisms use water and carbon dioxide to produce oxygen.
• A process by which photosynthetic organisms use light energy from the sun to produce carbon dioxide & glucose.
• A process by which photosynthetic organisms use energy from the sun to produce oxygen & glucose.
• A process by which photosynthetic organisms use water and carbon dioxide to produce glucose.

The correct order of phases of the eukaryotic cell cycle is _____________.

• Mitosis - Gap 1 - S phase - Gap 2
• Gap 1 - Mitosis - Gap 2 - S phase
• Gap 1 - S phase - Gap 2 - Mitosis
• Mitosis - Gap 2 - S phase - Gap 1

Which of the following occurs during the light-dependent stage?

• Breakdown of light energy
• Stage Clips
• PGAL synthesis
• Glucose Synthesis

If photosynthesis would not occur, which of the following could happen?

• There will be an increase in the amount of energy in the fossil fuels.
• The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere will decrease.
• There will be no chemical energy available for animals and other organisms.
• There will be an increase in the amount of available oxygen in the atmosphere.

Complete the analogy: Cell respiration: ATP and Carbon dioxide ; Photosynthesis: _______________________________.

• Carbon dioxide and Water
• Oxygen and Glucose
• Carbon dioxide and Glucose
• Nitrogen and Glucose

The correct order of phases during Mitosis is:

• Anaphase -> Metaphase -> Prophase -> Telophase
• Prophase -> Metaphase -> Anaphase -> Telophase
• Prophase -> Metaphase -> Telophase -> Anaphase
• Telophase -> Metaphase -> Anaphase -> Prophase
