Cell Cycle Quiz

What are the phases of the cell cycle?

• Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase

• G1, S, G2

• Interphase, Mitosis, Cytokinesis

• Telophase, Anaphase, Metaphase

During which phase of the cell cycle does DNA replication occur?

• G2 phase

• G1 phase

• S phase

• M phase

What happens during the G1 phase of the cell cycle?

• The cell divides into two daughter cells.

• The cell enters a resting phase.

• The cell grows in size and prepares for DNA replication.

• The cell undergoes mitosis.

Which phase of the cell cycle follows the S phase?

• G2 phase

• G0 phase

• M phase

• G1 phase

What occurs during the G2 phase of the cell cycle?

• The cell stops growing and enters a resting phase.

• The cell begins to divide into two daughter cells.

• The cell starts to replicate its DNA.

• The cell continues to grow and prepares for cell division.

What is the purpose of cell cycle regulation?

• To control cell division and prevent uncontrolled growth

• To prevent cell division and promote uncontrolled growth

• To regulate the cell cycle and promote controlled growth

• To promote uncontrolled growth and cell division

Which phase of the cell cycle is responsible for cell growth and normal metabolic activities?

• G2 phase

• G1 phase

• S phase

• M phase

What is the main event of the S phase of the cell cycle?

• DNA replication

• Cell differentiation

• Protein synthesis

• Cell division

Which phase of the cell cycle is responsible for preparation for cell division?

• G2 phase

• G1 phase

• M phase

• S phase

What is the purpose of cell cycle checkpoints?

• To regulate cell growth and proliferation.

• To ensure accurate cell division and maintain DNA stability

• To prevent DNA damage and repair any errors.

• To promote cell death and eliminate damaged cells.
