Cells And Control-Mitosis

Question 1

What is interphase (first phase of cell cycle)

Answer 1

This phase the cell creates extra sub cellular cell parts (mitochondria) and DNA replication occurs in order to make copies of chromosomes

Question 2

What is mitosis/cell division (second phase of cell cycle)

Answer 2

The cell splits to form 2 daughter cells, which are both identical to the parent cell.

Question 3

List these all in correct order (first to last) (1-5) prop phase, telophase, metaphase, anaphase, cytokinesis

Answer 3

1) Prophase
2) Meta phase
3) Anaphase
4) Telophase
5) Cytokinesis

Question 4

What’s a good way of remembering the stages of mitosis

Answer 4

Pathfinder (Prophase)
Makes (Metaphase)
A (Anaphase)
TTV (Telophase)
Cry (Cytokinesis)

Question 5

Prophase?

Answer 5

Nucleus starts to break down and spindle fibers appear

Question 6

Metaphase?

Answer 6

The end of this phase chromosomes line up on the spindle fibers across the middle of the cell

Question 7

Anaphase?

Answer 7

Chromosomes that were copied are separated and moved to either sides of the cell on the spindle fibers

Question 8

Telophase?

Answer 8

Membrane forms around each set of chromosomes to form a nuclei

Question 9

Cytokinesis?

Answer 9

Cell surface membrane appears/forms to separate the two cells

Question 10

What is a diploid?

Answer 10

2 sets of chromosomes

Question 11

What is a haploid?

Answer 11

1 copy of each type of chromosome found in Gametes (sex cells)
