Q

Which step does the chromosomes split down the middle and the sister chromatids are pulled separate ways by the spindle fibers

A

Anaphase

16
Q

Which phase is the cell pinched together in the middle and start to separate into two cells.

A

Telophase

17
Q

Which phase is the actual splitting of the cell

A

Cytokinesis

18
Q

Advantages of mitosis

A
  1. Time and energy is not wasted finding a mate
  2. Because it is continuous large numbers can be produced
  3. Offsping can be produced quickly
  4. Favourable enviroment conditions can be exploited
  5. If parent is gentically good quality the offspring will be as well.
19
Q

Advantages of miosis

A
  • Variation:
    1. Can adapt to changes in environment
    2. If parent is poor quality offspring has chance of not being poor quality
  • Not variation:
    3. Organisms can colonize more easily
20
Q

What begins the process; when the DNA is replicated.

A

Interphase

21
Q

What are somatic cells replication system

A

Mitosis

22
Q

What produces gametes

A

Miosis
