• To help the body get rid of extra cells

• To increase the amount of classwork you have to do

• To get rid of the nucleus

In which phase does the cell spend most of its life?

• Interphase
• Nuclear Division
• Telophase
• Mitosis

Which of the following is NOT occuring during interphase?

• Cell growth
• DNA being copied
• DNA condensing
• Two new cells are made

DNA is replicated during the ______ phase of the cell cycle.

• G₁
• Synthesis
• G₂
• G₀

Why would it be important to replicate DNA before a cell divides in mitosis or meiosis?

• In order for genetic information to be transferred into daughter cells.
• In order for the cell to be able to increase in size.
• In order for the DNA to be contained in the nucleus.
• In order for the cell to re-order the DNA sequencing in the new cells.

What phase of mitosis is this and what is happening?

• Anaphase; the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.

• Cytokinesis; the nuclear envelope dissolves and chromosomes condense.

• Interphase; the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.

• Prophase; the nuclear envelope dissolves and chromosomes condense.
