What do most body cells make when they go through cell division?

copies with half the chromosomes

the process of programmed cell death

the process of programmed cell growth

the process of programmed cell birth

the process of programmed cell regulation

Which of these lists presents the stages of the cell cycle in the correct order?

cytokinesis, mitosis, interphase

mitosis, interphase, cytokinesis

interphase, cytokinesis, mitosis

What is the role of checkpoints in the cell cycle?

To stop the cell cycle if DNA replication is incorrect

To regulate the cell's metabolism

To prevent the cell from entering apoptosis

To ensure the cell has enough energy to divide

How is cancer related to cell division?

Mutations can cause uncontrolled cell division which causes cancerous cells to spread rapidly and take nutrients from healthy cells.

Cancer stops cell division from happening.

Cell division causes viruses that spread around the body and cause cancer.

Cancer is not related to cell division.

Programmed cell death to prevent the spread of mutated/cancerous cells.

A type of cell division done by most of your body cells.

The final separation into two daughter cells and completion of the cell cycle.

Why does the DNA have to be copied during the S phase?

so each new cell has the same number of chromosomes

so the new cells has half the number of chromosomes

so the new cells have double the number of chromosomes

it's not really necessary to copy the DNA

A person is observing tissue of a person with cancer and a person without cancer. What would most likely be an observable difference between the two tissue samples?

The regular tissue would have more cells in interphase and the cancer more in mitosis.

The cancer sample would have more cells in interphase and the regular more in mitosis.

They would both have many cells in mitosis.

There would be no observable differences.

Stem cells are ____________________.

undifferentiated cells that can turn into other types of cells

cells such as skin cells and heart cells

specialized cells that do one job

What is the difference between embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells?

Embryonic can differentiate into more cell types than adult

Adult only turn into blood, while embryonic turn into many things.

Adult can differentiate into more cell types than embryonic

Adult grow bigger than embryonic

Which best explains why muscle cells are different from blood cells?

Different genes are activated in muscle cells than in blood cells.

Muscle cells are produced by the brain, but blood cells are produced by the heart.

Muscles cells experience different environmental influences than blood cells.

A mutation occurs during the development of muscle cells but not in blood cells.

In order from smallest to largest, what are the five levels of organization in the body?
