A ________________is a critical point where stop and go signals can regulate the cycle

• tumor

• checkpoint

• growth factor

• oncogene

Which part of the cell cycle is this cell in?

• Interphase, because this is showing telophase

• Interphase, because this is showing S phase

• Mitotic phase, because this is showing telophase

• Mitotic phase, because this is showing anaphase

Select the best description for how we know the cell pictured is in Telophase.

• There are two sets of DNA but the cytoplasm hasn't divided.

• The chromosomes are pulled towards opposite ends of the cell.

• There are two complete daughter cells.

• There is a metaphase plate.

The left cell is in interphase. Why are chromosomes not modeled in interphase?

• During interphase, the cell does not have genetic material.

• During interphase, the genetic material is uncondensed chromatin.

• During interphase, the DNA is unreplicated, so it is not visible.

• During interphase, the DNA is outside of the nucleus.
