Cell Growth/division Test

Question 0

SA:V

Answer 0

As both increase, volume increases faster

Question 1

2 main factors that control cell size

Answer 1

• information overload prevention

- exchange of materials

Question 2

Advantages to asexual

Answer 2

• faster

* better in a stable environment, because if parent does well so does offspring

Question 3

Disadvantages for asexual

Answer 3

In an unstable environment, if one does, probably all die

Question 4

Advantages sexual:

Answer 4

• population can adapt because there is an increased genetic variation
• better in an unpredictable environment

Question 5

ASEXUAL

Question 12

Interphase

Answer 12

G1, S, G2 <—- majority of time spent in cell cycle

Question 13

M Phase

Answer 13

•includes mitosis and cytokinesis

Question 14

Prophase

Answer 14

Longest phase, genetic material inside the nucleus condenses and the duplicated chromosomes become visible. Out side of the nucleus, spindles start to form

Question 15

Metaphase

Answer 15

The centromeres of the duplicated chromosomes line up across the center of the cell. Spindle fibers connect the centromere of each chromosome to the 2 poles of the spindle.

Question 16

Anaphase

Answer 16

Chromosomes desperate and move along spindle fibers to opposite ends of the cell

Question 17

Telophase

Answer 17

Chromosomes, which were distinct and condensed, begin to spread out into a tangle of chromatin
