Mitosis Unveiled: Exploring Cell Division and the Cell Cycle

The video tutorial covers cell division, focusing on mitosis. It explains the importance of cell division for tissue growth, repair, and replacement. The cell cycle is divided into interphase and the mitotic phase. Interphase includes G1, S, and G2 phases, where the cell prepares for division. The mitotic phase involves mitosis and cytokinesis, with stages like prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. The video concludes with a summary of the cell cycle.

What are the two types of cell division mentioned in the video?

• Mitosis and Binary Fission

• Binary Fission and Meiosis

• Meiosis and Mitosis

• Mitosis and Cytokinesis

Which phase of the cell cycle is responsible for preparing the cell for division?

• Prophase

• Interphase

• Cytokinesis

• Mitotic Phase

During which phase do cells produce new organelles and increase protein supply?

• M Phase

• G2 Phase

• S Phase

• G1 Phase

What major event occurs during the S phase of interphase?

• Centriole replication

• DNA replication

• Chromosome alignment

• Nuclear envelope formation

Which phase completes centriole replication and continues cell growth?

• G1 Phase

• G2 Phase

• S Phase

• M Phase

What is the primary focus of mitosis?

• Protein synthesis

• DNA replication

• Division of the nucleus

• Division of the cytoplasm

During which stage of mitosis do chromosomes align at the cell's equatorial plate?

• Metaphase

• Prophase

• Anaphase

• Telophase

What happens to sister chromatids during anaphase?

• They condense into chromosomes

• They form a new nuclear envelope

• They align at the equatorial plate

• They separate and move to opposite poles

What marks the completion of the cell division process?

• Formation of two daughter cells

• Completion of DNA replication

• Alignment of chromosomes

• Formation of new organelles

What occurs during telophase in the mitotic phase?

• Chromosomes condense

• Spindle fibers form

• Nuclear envelope reforms

• DNA replication
