What is the purpose of the spindle fibers during mitosis?

To move chromosomes into position during metaphase and anaphase

Why is it necessary that the nuclear membrane disintegrates during mitosis?

To enable the spindle fibers to access the chromosomes

To allow the cytoplasm to divide

Why must mitosis come before cytokinesis in the cell cycle?

To ensure that each new cell receives an identical set of chromosomes

To ensure that the DNA is replicated before the cell divides

To allow the cell to grow before division

To provide time for the spindle fibers to form

If mitosis occurs without cytokinesis, what would the resulting cell most likely resemble?

A cell with two separate nuclei

A cell that is identical to the parent cell

What is the importance of mitosis in the healing process of a skinned knee?

It replaces dead or injured cells.

It helps in the growth of the plant.

It increases the size of the knee.

It has no role in the healing process.

How might the resulting cells be affected if sister chromatids do not line up correctly during metaphase?

The resulting cells might have an incorrect number of chromosomes.

The resulting cells would be genetically identical.

The resulting cells would have the correct number of chromosomes.

There would be no effect on the resulting cells.
