Amoeba SIster Cell Cycle

Which statement is part of the Modern Cell Theory?

• All living things are made of cells.

• Cells are the largest living unit in all organisms.

• All cells spontaneously generate from non-living matter.

• Cells only exist in multicellular organisms.

How do multicellular organisms primarily grow?

• Individual cells increase significantly in size.

• Cells divide to produce more cells.

• Organisms absorb more non-living matter.

• Cells merge to form larger cells.

What is a primary characteristic of cancer cells?

• They grow slower than healthy cells.

• They divide in an uncontrolled manner.

• They always communicate effectively with other cells.

• They are unable to form tumors.

In which phase do cells spend most of their time during the cell cycle?

• Mitosis

• Cytokinesis

• Interphase

• Prophase

• Yes

• No

Which of the following phases are part of Interphase in the cell cycle?

• G1, S, and G2 phases

• Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase

• M phase and G1 phase

• S phase and M phase

What is a primary function of the G1 checkpoint in the cell cycle?

• Ensuring chromosomes are correctly aligned for separation.

• Checking if the cell has sufficient resources and undamaged DNA.

• Replicating the cell's DNA.

• Initiating programmed cell death.

What is the outcome for a cell if it encounters an irreparable problem at a cell cycle checkpoint?

• It enters a temporary resting phase.

• It proceeds to the next phase with the error.

• It undergoes programmed cell death.

• It replicates its DNA again.

What is characteristic of cells in the G0 phase?

• They are actively dividing and replicating DNA.

• They are preparing for mitosis.

• They perform normal cell functions but do not prepare to divide.

• They have damaged DNA that cannot be repaired.
