Cell Cycle and Mitosis

As a cell increases in size, the surface area to volume ratio

• decreases
• increases
• stays the same

Cytoplasmic division is called

• mitosis
• cytokinesis
• translation
• cell division

If you cut yourself, the cells at the edge of the cut

• stop dividing
• prevent healing
• stop growing
• divide rapidly

When the cells of a cut on your hand are almost healed, the

• rate of cell division increases.
• rate of cell division remains constant.
• controls on growth are reimposed.
• controls on growth remain constant.

The two main stages of cell division are

• m-phase and interphase
• G1 and G2
• mitosis and cytokinesis
• cytokinesis and interphase

In the process of cell division,

• mitosis follows cytokinesis
• interphase follows synthesis
• synthesis follows interphase
• cytokinesis follows mitosis

Chromosomes do not contain

• lipids
• DNA
• Proteins
• Histones

From S-phase to metaphase, a chromosome is made of 2 sister chromatids

• true
• false

In what phase do most cells spend the majority of time?

• Anaphase
• Interphase
• Metaphase
• Prophase
• Telophase

The first phase of mitosis is

• Telophase
• Anaphase
• Metaphase
• Prophase
• M-phase
