True/False: Mitosis results in 2 genetically identical daughter cells.
True
False; 4 genetically unique
False; 2 genetically unique
False; 4 genetically identical
What is unique to Prophase I- is that the duplicated chromosomes pair up to form _______.
a centrosome
a tetrad

true
false
Identify this specific phase of meiosis
Metaphase I
Metaphase II
Telophase I
Anaphase II
In Anaphase II, the _________ separate.
Homologues
Sister Chromatids
Tetrads
Centrioles
Check all of the following that DO occur during Telophase I and cytokinesis.
The separated homologous chromosomes are at opposite poles of the cell.
The cell divides in two.
The chromosomes do not uncoil, since they are getting ready for Meiosis II.
Sister chromatids are pulled away from each other.
Which of the following are CORRECT observations about the differences between MITOSIS and MEIOSIS? (Check all that apply.)
Mitosis produces cells that identical to the parent cell.
All cells go through INTERPHASE as part of the cell cycle, whether it goes to mitosis or meiosis next.
In both types of cell division, the chromosomes are only duplicated once.
Only in Mitosis, do you see chromosomes pair up to form a tetrad. (homologous chromosomes)
True/False: Meiosis results in 4 genetically identical daughter cells.
True
False; 4 genetically unique
False; 2 genetically unique
False; 2 genetically identical
Which of the following would never happen during interkinesis?
the cell grows
the cell duplicates centrioles
the chromosomes replicate
the chromosomes decondense briefly
Which of the following is a key difference between mitosis and meiosis?
Mitosis results in two cells, while meiosis results in one cell.
Mitosis occurs in somatic cells, while meiosis occurs in germ cells.
Mitosis produces haploid cells, while meiosis produces diploid cells.
Meiosis involves one cell division, while mitosis involves two cell divisions.
What is the end result of mitosis in terms of the number of cells and their genetic content?
