Elicit responses from targets in different tissues.

2.

The figure is in what phase of Mitosis or Meiosis?

a)

Mitosis: Anaphase

b)

Meiosis: Anaphase I

c)

Meiosis: Anaphase II

d)

Mitosis: Telophase

Meiosis: Telophase II

3.

What is the process before the cell starts to divide?

Mitosis

b)

Interphase

c)

DNA Replication

d)

Cell Differentiation

4.

What happens in the telophase of mitosis?

a)

Two chromatids of each chromosome are pulled apart at the centromere, two asters of mitotic apparatus are pushed farther apart, and chromatids are pulled tightly to the center of cell.

b)

Two sets of daughter chromosomes are pushed apart, mitotic apparatus dissolutes, new nuclear membrane develops around each set of chromosomes.

c)

Microtubular spines of the aster fragment the nuclear envelope, multiple microtubules from the aster attach to the chromatids at centromeres, and forms a contractile ring of microfilaments.

d)

Two asters of mitotic apparatus are pushed apart, molecular motors extend between spines and the cell pinches in two, midway between the two nuclei.

5.

What are the two key features that characterized meiosis?

a)

Formation of two identical DNA molecules and eventual formation of tetrads.

b)

Involvement of two cell divisions and production of four haploid cells.

c)

New combination of genes and production of four haploid cells.

d)

DNA recombination and yielding of two cells that are the same genetically.

6.

Considered as an extension of the Rough Endoplasmic reticulum.

a)

Nuclear pores

b)

Nuclear envelope

c)

Chromatin

d)

Smooth Endoplasmic reticulum

7.

Which of the following does not describe Peroxisomes?

8.

Which of the following is/are incorrectly paired?

a)

Golgi apparatus- functions in carbohydrate synthesis and in secretory processes.

b)

Actin filaments are microfilaments interacting with myosin to bring about cellular movement.

c)

Peroxisomes are responsible for lysis of malformed and ubiquitin-tagged proteins.

d)

SER- important in lipid metabolism and steroid hormone synthesis.

9.

Describe the difference in structure between the cell of a maple leaf and the cell of a squirrel.

a)

The squirrel cell would be a rigid, thick shape with straight lines; and the maple leaf cell would be more flexible and loose with no defined shape.

b)

The maple leaf cell would be a rigid, thick shape with straight lines; and the squirrel cell would be more flexible and loose with no defined shape.

c)

The squirrel cell would be a rectangular shape; and the maple leaf cell would be more of a blob.

d)

The squirrel cell would be green because of the presence of chloroplast, and the maple leaf cell would be clear or transparent.
