Mitosis and The Cell Cycle Webquest

The G1 checkpoint checks for:

• DNA damage

• Cell size

• Nutrient availability

• All of the above

During the G2 checkpoint, what is checked?

• DNA damage and replication completeness

• Cell size and protein reserves

• Chromosome alignment

• Spindle fiber attachment

Which of the following are examples of proteins involved in positive regulation of the cell cycle?

• Cyclins and CDKs

• Actin and Myosin

• Hemoglobin and Myoglobin

• Insulin and Glucagon

Which phase of mitosis involves the chromosomes aligning at the cell's equatorial plane?

• Prophase

• Metaphase

• Anaphase

• Telophase

Cytokinesis is the process of:

• cell division

• DNA replication

• protein synthesis

• RNA transcription

The goal of mitosis is to produce what type of cells?

• Identical daughter cells

• Different daughter cells

• Gametes

• Stem cells

Which stage of cell division is shown in the diagram below?

• Prophase

• Metaphase

• Anaphase

• Telophase

What is replicated during interphase?

• DNA

• RNA

• Proteins

• Lipids

Which of the following statements is true?

• DNA replicates during interphase

• Chromatin is made of DNA

• Genes are found on DNA

• All statements are true

Mitosis ultimately results in:

• two identical daughter cells

• four different daughter cells

• one identical daughter cell

• two different daughter cells
