• telophase
• metaphase
• interphase

The uncontrolled division of cells can lead to:

• cancer
• mitosis
• meiosis
• cellular recombination

The process of going from a diploid cell to a haploid cell occurs during

• mitosis
• meiosis
• binary fission
• interphase

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

Crossing over involves:

• synapsis

• formation of a tetrad

• alignment of homologous chromosomes

• all of the above

What phase does a cell stay in the longest?

• interphase
• cell division
• cytokinesis
• mitosis

What is the result of mitosis?

• unique parent cells
• unique daughter cells
• identical parent cells
• identical daughter cells

When a chromosome is NOT dividing, what form does it take?

• chromatid
• chromatin
• chromosome
• centromere

The point of attachment between two sister chromatids is called

• kinetochore
• centromere
• chromosome
• spindle

The correct order of the stages of interphase is

• M, G1, G2, S, and cytokinesis

• G1, S, M, G2

• G1, S, G2, M

• none of these

If a sample of human cheek cells was examined, the cells should have a chromosome number that is

• haploid; 23
• diploid; 23
• haploid; 46
• diploid; 46
