Mitosis Review

Ja'kayla, Lindsey, and Isaiah are learning about cell biology. They are curious to know which phase is the first phase of the cell cycle. Can you help them identify it?

• prophase

• metaphase

• anaphase

• interphase

In a biology class, Bruno and Raphael observed under the microscope that a cell has just completed mitosis and now there are two genetically identical daughter cells. Which stage of mitosis did they just witness?

• telophase

• cytokinesis

• prophase

• anaphase

During this phase of the cell cycle DNA is replicated in preparation for M phase

• S Phase

• G1 Phase

• G2 Phase

• G0 Phase

During a science fair, Fatemeh presented a live cell model. She pointed out the phase of mitosis where chromosomes line up in the center of the cell attached to spindle fibers. Which phase was she referring to?

• Prophase

• Metaphase

• Cytokinesis

• Anaphase

During this phase of mitosis DNA supercoils condense and the nuclear membrane dissolves

• telophase

• anaphase

• metaphase

• prophase

Jocelyne is studying cell biology and observes an organism undergoing cell division. She notes that the process is mitosis. Which type of organism is Aria most likely observing?

• prokaryotic

• bacteria

• archaebacteria

• eukaryotic

During this stage of mitosis spindle fibers pull apart sister chromatids

• Anaphase

• Telophase

• Cytokinesis

• Prophase

During a biology class, Miguel was asked to describe the two phases of the cell cycle. What are they?

How many stages are there in the cell cycle?

• 3

• 2

• 4

• 8

In a biology class, Issa is observing an onion cell under a microscope during a lab session. She notes that the cell is in a stage of mitosis where the nuclear membrane is reforming around two sets of identical chromosomes. This stage is the second to last step of the process. Which stage is she observing?

• Telophase

• Prophase

• Metaphase

• Anaphase
