Total questions: 10
Worksheet time: 5mins
DISCRIMINATION: Why do cells need to divide?
for growth
for the repair of damaged tissues
for reproduction
for the extinction of species
DISCRIMINATION: Descriptions for somatic cells
They are diploid in number.
They are cells found in the body.
They divide through meiosis.
They divide through mitosis.
CONCEPT RECALL: They are formed from DNA strands and carry genetic information.
centrioles
centrosome
kinetochore
chromosome
SYNTHESIS: homologous chromosomes pair up; crossing over happens; nuclear membrane disintegrates
prophase
prophase I
prophase II
interphase
SYNTHESIS: has two cell divisions; produces four daughter cells; happens in reproductive cells only
cleavage furrow
cell plate formation
mitosis
meiosis
CONCEPT RECALL: It is the stage where DNA is replicated and checked for possible mistakes
Go phase
G1 phase
S phase
G2 phase
ANALYSIS: Mitosis is a type of cell division.
It produces two daughter cells.
It involves one cell division.
Both statements are correct.
None of the statements is correct.
ANALYSIS: Meiosis is a type of cell division.
It produces two daughter cells.
It involves two cell divisions.
Both statements are correct.
None of the statements is correct.
ANALYSIS: Prophase is the stage next to interphase.
The chromosomes start to shorten and thicken.
The nuclear membrane begins to form.
Both statements are correct.
None of the statements is correct.
SYNTHESIS: Homologous chromosomes line up at the equator; spindle fibers attach to the centrosomes; the nuclear membrane is completely disintegrated
metaphase
metaphase I
metaphase II
anaphase
