Cell Cycle Pre-Test

What two types of cells in the human body do not undergo mitosis?

• Somatic and Germ cells
• Germ cells and Neurons
• Myocytes and Osteocytes
• Somatic cells and Neurons

What Phase of the cell cycle is pictured

• Telophase
• Prophase
• Metaphase
• Anaphase

There was an issue during the formation of a new cell. The DNA did not replicate correctly, thus causing a mutation, and eventually this led to a cancerous tumor forming. What phase of the cell cycle did this mutation likely take place?

• Metaphase
• Interphase
• Prophase
• Telophase

What is the correct order of the cell cycle?

• Telophase, Prophase, Interphase, Metaphase, Anaphase
• Prophase, Interphase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
• Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Prophase, Interphase
• Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase

Alzheimer's disease is a neurological disease that causes memory loss and eventual loss in motor function. It is hypothesized that this disease begins due to a dysfunction in the re-entry of a cell into mitosis. What phase of the cell cycle did this mutation likely take place?

• Going into interphase
• At the end of prophase
• Going into telophase
• At the end of interphase

During which phase of mitosis do the chromosomes align on the equator?

• Anaphase
• Metaphase
• Interphase
• Prophase

True or False? The interphase of the cell cycle features 3 parts: the G1, S, and G2 phases.

• True
• False

How many PAIRS of chromosomes would be present in the phase pictured below? (Hint: How many pairs of chromosomes are in a normal human cell?)

• 2
• 23
• 46
• 92

During what subphase of Interphase do organelles duplicate?

• G2
• S
• G1

Match Each Phase to its correct definition

• Telophase

• Beginning of mitosis where the cell grows, DNA replicates, and Cell organelles duplicate

• Metaphase

• Phase where chromosomes organize themselves as pairs and the nuclear envelope disappears

• Interphase

• Phase where the cell splits apart and cytokinesis occurs

• Prophase

• Phase where the Chromosomes align at the cell equator
