What is the proper order of events in the cell cycle?
A) G1, M, G2, S
B) G1, G2, S, M
C) G1, G2, M, S
D) G1, S, G2, M
E) M, G1, G2, S
Feedback:
In the cell cycle, interphase (G1, S, G2 stages) precedes the M stage (mitosis and cytokinesis).
Points Earned: 1.0/1.0
Correct Answer(s): D
2.
A cell spends most of its time in which of the following phases?
A) Mitosis
B) G2
C) G1
D) S
E) Interphase
Feedback:
For most of the cell cycle, the cell is in interphase, defined as the period of time between cell divisions.
Points Earned: 1.0/1.0
Correct Answer(s): E
,3.
If the total number of chromosomes in parent cell is six, then after mitosis there will be:
A) Three chromosomes in each daughter cell
B) Two chromosomes in each daughter cell, one from each parent
C) Three chromosomes in one daughter cell and six chromosomes in the other cell
D) 12 chromosomes in each daughter cell
E) Six chromosomes in each daughter cell
Feedback:
Following mitosis, daughter cells have the same chromosome count as the parent cell.
Points Earned: 1.0/1.0
Correct Answer(s): E
5.
In mitosis, the chromosomes line up on the equator of the cell during:
A) Prophase
B) Telophase
C) Metaphase
D) Anaphase
E) Interphase
Feedback:
During metaphase, chromosomes align at the equator of the cell.
Points Earned: 1.0/1.0
Correct Answer(s): C
6.
,A cell biologist is studying the phase of mitosis where sister chromatids separate and begin to move
toward the poles of the cell. Which of the following phases of mitosis is this biologist studying?
A) Anaphase
B) Metaphase
C) Telophase
D) Prophase
E) Cytokinesis
Feedback:
During anaphase, sister chromatids separate and become chromosomes.
Points Earned: 1.0/1.0
Correct Answer(s): A
4.
Which sequence in the cell cycle is correct?
A) Prophase, metaphase, interphase, telophase
B) Metaphase, anaphase, prophase, telophase
C) Anaphase, interphase, telophase, prophase
D) Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
E) Interphase, metaphase, prophase, anaphase
Feedback:
The stages of mitosis, which are part of the cell cycle, are (from start to finish): prophase, metaphase,
anaphase, and telophase.
Points Earned: 1.0/1.0
Correct Answer(s): D
7.

8.
Crossing-over occurs during which of the following phases?
A) Prophase II
B) Metaphase I
C) Metaphase II
D) Prophase I
E) Anaphase I
Feedback:
During prophase I, chromosomes have duplicated, homologues pair during synapsis, and crossing-over
occurs.
