Review: Cell Cycle, Meiosis, Virus and Cell Differentiation

What are the stages of mitosis?

• start, pause, resume, finish

• early, late, middle, final

• prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase

• beginning, middle, end, final

What is the main difference between mitosis and meiosis?

• Mitosis and meiosis both produce two identical daughter cells.

• Mitosis and meiosis both produce four genetically different daughter cells.

• Mitosis produces four genetically different daughter cells, while meiosis produces two identical daughter cells.

• Mitosis produces two identical daughter cells, while meiosis produces four genetically different daughter cells.

Explain the process of viral replication.

• Viral replication is the process by which a virus makes copies of itself within a host cell.

• Viral replication is the process of a virus merging with the host cell's DNA.

• Viral replication involves the virus creating new cells outside of a host.

• Viral replication is the process of a virus destroying host cells.

What is interphase and its significance in the cell cycle?

• Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle when the cell is dormant and not actively functioning.

• Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle when the cell divides into two daughter cells.

• Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle during which the cell grows, carries out its normal functions, and prepares for division.

• Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle when the cell undergoes apoptosis and dies.

List the phases of the cell cycle.

• Start phase, Middle phase, End phase

• Interphase, Mitosis, Cytokinesis

• Prophase, Anaphase, Telophase

• Growth phase, Division phase, Resting phase

What is the purpose of mitosis in the body?

• To regulate body temperature

• To break down old cells in the body

• To produce new cells for growth, repair, and maintenance of the body.

• To produce energy for the body

How does meiosis contribute to genetic diversity?

• By reducing the number of chromosomes

• By creating new combinations of alleles through crossing over, independent assortment, and random fertilization.

• By preventing the exchange of genetic material

• By producing identical offspring through asexual reproduction

Describe the structure of a virus.

• Genetic material (DNA or RNA) surrounded by a protein coat

• A multicellular structure with specialized tissues

• A complex network of organelles

• A single-celled organism with a nucleus

What are the key differences between DNA replication in mitosis and meiosis?

• Size of the daughter cells

• Type of genetic material in the daughter cells

• Number of divisions and resulting number of daughter cells

• Color of the daughter cells

Explain the role of checkpoints in the cell cycle.

• Checkpoints in the cell cycle are used to speed up the division of cells

• Checkpoints in the cell cycle help ensure the proper progression of the cell cycle and prevent the division of cells with damaged DNA.

• Checkpoints in the cell cycle have no impact on the progression of the cell cycle

• Checkpoints in the cell cycle only occur in plant cells
