Cell Cycle Review

What happens as a cell becomes larger?

• It requires less energy for cell transport.

• There is more stress on the cell and its DNA.

• It can move materials more quickly.

What is the number of chromosomes in the new cells compared to the parent cell?

• Half the number

• The same number

• Double the number

Why does a larger cell require more energy?

• To move nutrients and waste across the cell membrane.

• To produce more DNA.

• To divide into smaller cells.

What are the new cells called after a cell divides?

• Clone cells

• Daughter cells

• Parent cells

What happens during the G1 phase of the cell cycle?

• Cytoplasm divides

• Period of cell growth before DNA duplication

• DNA is duplicated

Which phase of the cell cycle is the longest?

• Interphase

• Mitotic phase

• Mitosis

Which phase follows the S phase in the cell cycle?

• G1

• G2

• Mitosis

What is the third phase of Mitosis?

• Prophase

• Metaphase

• Anaphase

• Telophase

What is the main event during the S phase?

• Cell growth

• DNA duplication

• Cytoplasm division

What occurs during the G2 phase of the cell cycle?

• Cytoplasm divides

• Cell prepares for division

• DNA is duplicated
