Mitosis Newest Quiz with precise detailed solutions || || || || || ||
3 things that happened during interphase - ✔✔1. The cell grows to its mature size
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
2. makes a copy of its DNA
|| || || || || ||
3. Prepares to divide into 2 cells
|| || || || || ||
Describe what happens when the cell is growing - ✔✔The cell doubles in size and produces new
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
ribosomes, copies mitochondria/chloroplasts || ||
What is replication - ✔✔When the cell makes a copy of the DNA in its nucleus in a process
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
What is the function of DNA - ✔✔A nucleic acid found in the chromosomes that holds all the
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
information that the cell needs to carry out its functions || || || || || || || || ||
Could the two new daughter cells survive without the Parent's cells DNA? Explain. - ✔✔No
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
because the DNA of the daughter cells must be replications of the DNA of the Parent's cells
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
Describe what happens after the cell's DNA has been replicated - ✔✔Preparation for cell division
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
begins
Why do you think Interphase is known as the resting phase? - ✔✔It's a state where cell division
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
doesn't occur ||
Describe what happens during Mitosis - ✔✔The state during which the cell's nucleus divides
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
nucleus into 2 nuclei. One copy of the DNA is distributed into each of the two nuclei
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
4 phases of mitosis and what do they do - ✔✔1. Prophase- Chromatin condenses
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
2. Metaphase- Chromosomes attach to spindle fibers
