3.

Ploidy and the number of cells made in Mitosis

a)

Both haploid and diploid

b)

46 chromosomes

c)

4 gametes

d)

2 daughter cells, diploid (2n)

4.

5.

Mistakes in Mitosis ( select all that apply )

a)

Incorrect DNA copies

b)

Numerical changes in chromosome number observed in cancer

c)

Production of daughter cells with too many or too few chromosomes

6.

Ploidy and the number of cells made in Meiosis

a)

4 haploid cells; 2n to n

b)

4 diploid cells; 2n

c)

Sperm and egg cells

d)

2 haploid and 2 diploid cells

7.

Why is it important to make genetically different cells in Meiosis?

a)

The cell replicates itself in an organized, step-by-step fashion known as the cell cycle.

b)

Why is this even a question?

c)

Creates genetic diversity in the population

d)

It allows sexual reproduction of diploid organisms

8.

Mistakes in Meiosis ( select all that apply )

a)

Producing gametes with an extra or missing chromosome

b)

Crossing over

c)

Nondisjunction; sister chromatids fail to separate during either anaphase I or II

d)

I don't know

9.

Why is it important to make exact replicas of our cells in Mitosis?

a)

I don't know

b)

Why does it matter

c)

Makes sure that each daughter cell gets a copy of a genome; success in genetic traits

d)

The information stored in the DNA is essential for life.

10.

a)

Both

b)

sex cells

c)

Neither

d)

somatic cells
