- Q1Alice uses a microscope to look at slides of onion cells. The slides show the stages of the cell cycle. The slides are labeled and in the correct order, starting with interphase. In which slide would Alice first see chromosomes?prophasecytokinesistelophaseanaphase30s
- Q2Why does cell division take place in single-celled organisms?to make specialized cells for different functionsto reproduce and pass on genetic informationto enable the organisms to heal injured tissuesin order for the organisms to grow30s
