Total questions: 30
Worksheet time: 38mins
What are chromosomes?
They attach to the DNA and pull it to the sides
They contain mitochondria
They contain ribosomes
DNA packaged into threadlike structures
Anaphase
Cytokinesis
Telophase
Metaphase
Cytokinesis
Interphase
Anaphase
Metaphase
How is cancer related to cell division?
Mutations can cause uncontrolled cell division which causes cancerous cells to spread rapidly and take nutrients from healthy cells.
Cancer stops cell division from happening.
Cell division causes viruses that spread around the body and cause cancer.
Cancer is not related to cell division.
How many chromosomes does a human somatic (body) cell have?
46
23
42
26
Daughter cells created by mitosis have
half of the parents genetic material
twice the parent cell's genetic material
an exact copy of the parent cell
have a brand new DNA structure
Which phase is shown here?

Which stage of the cell cycle includes Growth 1, DNA synthesis, and Growth 2?
anaphase
telophase
interphase
cytokinesis
Before the process of mitosis can start, which must occur?
DNA replication
RNA transcription
protein translation
microtubule formation
What process involves the division of the cytoplasm?
anaphase
cytokinesis
interphase
prophase
If a daughter cell has 50 chromosomes after mitosis, how many chromosomes were in the parent cell?
25
50
100
150
Why is interphase the longest stage of the cell cycle?
the nucleus takes numerous days to divide
gametes are produced over a long period of time
the cytoplasm and cell membrane separate after telophase
the cell grows, metabolizes, and synthesizes more genetic material
What is the end result of cytokinesis?
2 cells
4 cells
1 cell with 2 nuclei
a cell prepared for mitosis
