Cell Cycle and Division

Abigail is studying cell division and wants to know how many stages are in mitosis. Can you help her?

• 1

• 2

• 3

• 4

Michael is studying cell division under a microscope. He observes a cell with two nuclei and asks Arjun, 'What phase is this cell in?'

• Mitosis

• Cytokinesis

• Prophase

• Telophase

Aiden is learning about cell division in his biology class. He wants to know in which type of cells mitosis occurs. Can you help him?

• egg cells

• germ cells

• jail cells

• Somatic cells (body cells)

During a biology class, Scarlett, Michael, and Maya were observing cells under a microscope. They noticed a cell where the chromosomes were at opposite ends of the cell. What phase of cell division were they observing?

• prophase

• anaphase

• interphase

• telophase

During a biology class, Aiden, Anika, and Emma are learning about Metaphase. Where do the chromosomes line up during this phase?

• Middle of the cell

• Outside the cell

• Edges of the Cell

• Around the Cell

What is Interphase?

• structure that holds the sister chromatids together.

• the phase of the cell cycle in which the nucleus and its contents divide.

• the phase in which the cytoplasm and its contents divide.

• the period during the cell cycle of a cell’s growth and development.

What might happen if cytokinesis did not occur after mitosis?

• The cell becomes stronger because it has two sets of organelles.

• The cell becomes heavier because it has two sets of organelles.

• The cells would remain fused together and the new double cell would have duplicates of all parts.

• The cell becomes bigger because it has two sets of organelles.

During the cell cycle, the cell’s nucleus and its contents divide to create two ____________.

• organelles

• organisms

• identical daughter cells

• organs

Why is the cell cycle so important?

• because it helps for growth and develop

• because it replaces cells that are old or damaged

• because it produces new cells

• All of the above
