Mitosis and Meiosis

Which stage of Mitosis is being shown and described: Chromosomes line up in the middle.

• interphase

• prophase

• metaphase

Which stage of Mitosis is being shown and described:

The membrane around the nucleus begins to break down and chromosomes form into an X shape.

• Telophase

• Anaphase

• Prophase

Which stage of Mitosis is being shown and described: The cell splits into two identical cells.

• metaphase

• anaphase

• telophase

Which stage of Mitosis is being shown and described:

Chromosome pairs move away from each other

to opposite ends of the cell.

• Prophase

• Metaphase

• Anaphase

What portion of the cell cycle involves the actual dividing?

• interphase

• mitosis

• Gap 1

• Gap 2

A chromosome is composed of two identical sister

• centromeres

• chromatids

• autosomes

• somatic cells

What does point A show?

• chromosome

• chromatid

• centromere

• centriole

What stage of Mitosis is being described:

Cell carries out its normal functions, grows and

prepares to divide, and the DNA is copied/duplicated.

This stage is the resting phase of the cell cycle and

cells spend most of their time in this phase.

• Interphase

• Telophase

• Anaphase

What do the cells look like at the end of mitosis?

• different from original cell

• similar to the original cell

• identical to the original cell
